Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

This version made a tripping Tucker Carlson run to the bathroom and hide on top of the toilet

Hot. With annoying input from Healy at the end.

I can't seem to recommend the Gentlemen Start Your Engines from this show. But a good one with a cool solo from Garcia. Played live just twice.
