This week’s Deadpod comes from a listener request, as we head to Buffalo, New York, and the Grateful Dead’s performance at Rich Stadium on June 6, 1992. It’s firmly in the early ’90s period, with Vince Welnick on keys and the band leaning into a more polished, modern sound while still drawing on their deep songbook.
In this first set we get a very ’90s opener with “Touch of Grey” into “Greatest Story Ever Told,” followed by a focused “Althea” and a lively “It’s All Over Now.” The mood then shifts into a more acoustic‑flavored stretch with “Friend of the Devil” and “When I Paint My Masterpiece,” before the set closes out with a sing‑along “Ramble On Rose” and a “Let It Grow” that brings some welcome late‑set energy and improvisation. This week we’ll feature that opening set; we’ll return to Buffalo next week for the second set and its high‑energy closing stretch.
I hope you enjoy this listener‑selected trip back to June 6, 1992 in Buffalo.
