After the New Years 1981 show "Dark Star" would only appear once more in the first half of the eighties (at the Hearst Greek Theatre on July 13, 1984) and would lie dormant until revived at the legendary ""Formerly the Warlocks"" two-day run at Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia on October 9, 1989. Shortly after, performing as the Grateful Dead, Dark Star returned on October 16, 1989 in a performance at the Meadowlands Arena (FKA Brendyn Byrne Arena) which later was released as "Nightfall of Diamonds". After its 1989 revival, this song would become a dreadnought, performed frequently through 1990, and occasionally through the rest of the band's career. A memorable post-revival "Dark Star" is from the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, on March 29, 1990, with jazz saxophonist Branford Marsalis sitting in with the band. One of these performances was featured in the syndicated "The Grateful Dead Hour" radio program, extending the song's legend somewhat outside the inner circle of Deadheads; the entire show appears as the vault release "Wake Up to Find Out".
