Long haul jam here. Great tone, Jerry's got it totally busted with overdrive, and Bob is clean as a whistle. Excellent transition into Wharf Rat

Could have been an all-timer with a synchronistic crowd leading the claps, but they’re waaaay fast on tempo. Band sloppily tried to match.

Crowd is nice and rowdy tonight. Wonder how tickets were dolled for this run. Sounds like 250 instead of 2,500 in there.

Such a beautiful clean tone on Jerry's Tiger here. I wonder how it sounded in the room, boy does it ever shine on tape.

Coming out of the debut of Far From Me (first time he sang a lead?), Brent really had to win the crowd back and delivered Aces.

Jerry really cooked himself through this show..(odd?) night off 12-29 and pretty uninspired on 12-30. Recharged for NYE but can't top this one.

Having some stereo/streaming trouble, so I had to back up and listen to this cut about 10 times. Never my favorite tune...but never say never and Row Jimmy Row.

To hell with lyrics and to hell with the dusty 70's. We want hard shreds and funky jams, and we're damn well gonna get it for the next 10 trips 'round.

Sun so HOT tonight!! Past 2 nights of the run were a little stiff...knew we were saving the fire for NYE. Welcome to the 80's...fast approaching the best few years of the Dead (come at me and NFA)
