Not Fade Away
March 12, 1981
Boston Garden

Ace has been conducting an improv symposium this whole night. Basically a proto-Wolf Bros show

He's Gone

Boston Garden

Rolfe AUD tape, someone's son is screaming for this tune through a good part of Set 1. Are you happy now?

Drums -> Space
Nov. 26, 1980
The Sportatorium

I usually do not care about Drums>Space...it's my time to have a cigarette and a wizz, in concert OR at home. But this rips.

Saint of Circumstance

Radio City Music Hall

Wheel > Saint > Peter. Who had that on their bingo blotters? Doubt all were on the same page here...Bobby puts in the extra effort to justify the call

Estimated Prophet
Oct. 26, 1980
Radio City Music Hall

Between equipment troubles, tempo disagreements, and a false start...this Prophet was fated to release itself in a deformed, chaotic expression.

To Lay Me Down
Sept. 26, 1980
Warfield Theater

After a bit of shaky night opening night to the Warfield acoustic run, the nerves have settled and we're into perfection
Bird Song

Warfield Theater

"We figured, 'what the fuck?' Might as well try it." Incredible to hear how uncomfortable Jerry is without an impenetrable decibel force between the crowd. Certainly he's no stranger to playing acoustic, but coming out so raw in a proper Grateful Dead show? Shook.
Brokedown Palace
Sept. 6, 1980
State Fairgrounds

A rare, sloppy Brokedown tonight, and boy did they ever earn it.
Far From Me
Sept. 6, 1980
State Fairgrounds

Awesome overdrive>wah chain on Tiger here
Friend of the Devil
Sept. 6, 1980
State Fairgrounds

Easy to get swept up in Jerry, but I was taking a different ride on Billy's hi-hats. Combination of the tape + my EQ but mostly he's just laying it down straight as an arrow.
