Drums -> Space
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Heavy (and long) drums, short space, > Dark Star, but it sounds like they stay in Space for the monster post-verse 2 jam.

Great version. Nice Jerry, nice Keith, emotive Bobby. Sip your bourbon in the desert.

Nice version with good band interplay. I loved the jam at the end, although I thought the landing into "Estimated" was rocky. Great stand-alone!
Touch of Grey

I liked this version, but don't think it works where they have it placed in the set (although it definitely helps give this first set a character quite different from the others in this three-show run).
Let The Good Times Roll

Capital Centre

I did like the opener; it's nice to hear something new(er) in this slot!

Eh, I was indifferent. Too fast for my taste, and the solo doesn’t do anything but ornament the melody.

Huge bust out (four and a half years), and Phil works it.
