Bird Song

Giants Stadium

Very inspired playing. Jazzy swing from the rhythm devils, Lesh is barreling down the low end, and Jerry dancing the leads to a powerful conclusion

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

SCREAMING start to the show. Boys attack like rabid dogs. Great Brent solo in here. Welcome to Red Rocks!

This one opens up nicely, and continually unfolds, into a seamless segue into PITB reprise

Boutwell Auditorium

They are playing in Birmingham, the song mentions Birmingham, mass crowd hysteria ensues. Hot version though, so justifiable

Deservedly at the top spot, this one is a psychedelic swinging masterpiece

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

That comment was absolutely perfect/hilarious and I could not agree more. This and Barton - fine shows, no question, but not every song is the best ever. "Jerry cleared his throat as set two started and it was the best throat clearing the band has ever done."

Oh man, this is flawless! Grisman with some amazing fills on mandolin. Such a bute!
