Beat it on Down The Line
Oct. 3, 1994
Boston Garden

"Beat It" beat it after this one. Abrupt, sloppy lead-in but the song itself is tight and enthusiastic.

Shoreline Amphitheatre

I was shocked not to see this one from the famous PPV solstice broadcast.

Phil's all over this one. Really urgent upbeat version.

Coliseum

Great opener for Vince's second show. Jerry's solos are rippin' and Bob's possessed. Nice subtle work from Vinny.

Jack Straw

Springfield Civic Center

Surprised this ain't here. Lyrically perfect (another Clive ad lib from Bobby) and Jerry kills the transition jam.

Dark Star
Jan. 10, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This is a great version and extremely underrated. Coming off Winterland, you can feel the energy of its return to the East Coast.
Touch of Grey
Sept. 20, 1990
Madison Square Garden

Feels like an appropriate statement to end the first great run after Brent died.
Big Railroad Blues
June 25, 1985
Blossom Music Center

This version should be higher. It fucking smokes.
Eyes Of The World
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

One of my all time favorites. They were still knocking it out of the park in 1991.
Morning Dew
April 15, 1978
William and Mary College Hall

Top 10 "Dew." Unbelievable intensity, especially the drummers.
