Brown Eyed Women
Crowd responds to this version very favoribly so much so that both Lesh and Garcia say "Thank You" after it.

Cassidy
A bit slower than the others I’ve heard from this month, and I think the song works better this way.

Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Great Phil rips, nice vocal harmonies. Nice soloing on “Supplication.”
6
It Must Have Been The Roses
Lovely playing and singing from Jerry, and Keith is all over this first set.
5
Estimated Prophet
Dig into this nice first set "Estimated." Phil joins in on riffing on the main riff, which I’ve not heard before on this tour. Nice solo.

The Other One
Never really expands beyond the song’s material, but hard and well-played. Hear in context of set 2.

Ramble On Rose
