Deadheads !!! ... Fans of Dayton, Ohio ! & the Classic Hara Arena !!  A Ohio Venue which the Good Ol' Grateful Dead only played ... Once ! - on the 1981 Winter Tour !!!  As offered here is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the November 30, 1981 ( 11/30/1981 ) Show at the Hara Arena - in Dayton, Ohio ( OH ) !!!  This Tour Stop at Hara Arena in Dayton was the 2nd-Night on a short & brief ... b
ut Hot ! Grateful Dead ' Winter ' Tour in '81 - with likely the greatest importance being ... " So Boys, How-Was that ' Europe Tour ' !!?! ".  Do you catch my drift on this one ?  As there were only really around a half dozen ' immediate ' chances to hear how things were sounding for the Band in the Winter of '81 - after a fairly-sizable ( and significantly underrated ! ) " Europe '81 " Tour !  a sort of " Home at ( instead of Winterland ... ) - Pittsburgh > Hara Arena - Dayton, Ohio ! > University of Illinois > Madison, Wisconsin > Market Square in Indiana > the Rosemont Horizon in Illinois > Des Moines, IA > University of Colorado - at Boulder ! ".  Well, you know - not quite ' Home ' -- but still definitely " back-home " in the U.S.A. ... with the U.S. Dead Fans !!!  I believe the 1st taste I ever scored of this '81 mini-Tour was from the 12/5/81 Market Square Show, and ... I kind of did a bit of a double-take - because I really was short on '81 G.D. following the Europe Tour ?!?  Well, I fixed that ... Fast ! - with the Dane County ( 12/3/81 ) Show being the next - and then the 12/9/81 Boulder Show ( now known today as " Dave's Picks 20 ! " ) - then the 12/2/81 U of Illinois Show - and finally here way-deep into the ' Digital-Dead ' Era -- I have finally heard this 11/30/81 Dayton Show !!!  And, it's for real ... & Equally-Cool ! as This ! 11/30/81 Dayton Backstage Pass !! ... with the Classic ! G.D. " Dead Set " Art !!  In the '80's Soundboards from this run were indeed few & far between - as most Folks I knew at the time were circulating Audiences - and, very-nice ones at that.  Everybody seemed to want these Shows dialed - as the Band was So-Hot & Fiery !  Some of the Prime / Primary days of the " lay-it-all-out " '80's G.D. Attitude - with copious chances being taken ... Everywhere !  Another source of the popularity of this run - is that it indeed included a few " College Town Shows " & " Smaller Indoor Arena Venues " - and, if the Show wasn't actually " at " the College - there was one very-conveniently not too far away - pretty much right around the corner ! - or, you know ... Freeway !!  As us Deadheads are never-ever afraid of a little quality Drive-Time ! ... Ha !  Wow ... and just to think too - that with all of the Touring ! the Grateful Dead did over their 30-Year ! Career ! - with ... Tons ! being right-through the Grate ! State of Ohio !! --- This ! still was the Only-Show-Ever ! that the Dead ever played at " Hara Arena " ! ... 11/30/81 on the 1981 Winter Tour !!!  So ... Quite ! the Collectible G.D. Pass to have here - and, maybe even more so if you are from Ohio !!  Awesome ...  And too - most importantly ... " Musically " - the Band really-made this 11/30 Show Count !  Minglewood Blues ! opened up the Show - and then, pretty much out of nowhere ?!? >>> " Mack The Knife !!! ".  The Only-Time it was Ever ! performed Live ! - and, maybe even Played ?!? by The Grateful Dead !!!  Wow ... so yes indeed, as the Fans got a pretty Historic ! G.D. Treat ! ... by Song 2 of the Night !!  Then followed - and Amazing ! '81 through & through ... Bird Song ! > Little Red Rooster !  Very-very nice ... TLEO - Cassidy ! - Tennessee Jed - and then Let It Grow > Don't Ease Me In ! for the 1st Set closer - with Let It Grow ... Smokin' !!!  The Estimated > Eyes ! indeed stole the 2nd Set - in the pre-Drums / Space position ... but, then very-shortly after that - right out of Space ! ... The Other One !!!  And, my oh my ... is this-one Huge !!!  Phil Thunder ! & Garcia Lightning !!  Then Wharf Rat into ... Sugar Magnolia !!!  And that Fans, is all she wrote - for the Grateful Dead's Entire-Career ... at " Hara ! ".  Ha !!  Oh yeah, and before I forget too ... ( as how could I ?!? ) --- Might As Well !! for this Show's Encore !  Needless to say ... This ! was a Grate !! G.D. Night !  With this 1981 Grateful Dead unit On-Fire !!!  What a Fantastic-Show !! ... close-to 40-Years Ago ! - on the Magical ! & HOT !!! '81 G.D. Winter Tour !!! ... Enjoy !!!!!
