Another one from this classic show!

One of Brent's last shows and he does a great job on the keys. Healy tweaks Bob's voice for a spooky "Phantom of the Opera". A literary version from

Best ever at a bad show. Petty, Dylan and the Dead.

Real nice Bobby giving 100% despite a slight throat issue that plaques him much of 1993, Jerry rips his solo. Real Nice performance. Vince is on too
