Not a huge fan of this tune usually but this one is extremely catchy. Maybe it had to do with the fact that they were in Nashville...

Either Garcia forgets the lyrics or they were having tech issues which extends the Lady with a fan portion making this a real unique version.

This show is in your face. Garcia's leads are screaming throughout the whole gig. This is what heavy metal was before heavy metal. He attacks the audience.

I remember probably 15 years ago pulled up into the Safeway parking lot in North Boulder and had this cranking. Got out of the car and a lady next to me had a huge smile on her face getting into her car groceries in hand and said “they don’t do it like that anymore”.

Only drawback to this one is super quiet Pig vocals.
