Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

ambitious, abstract, and involved in the multi-dimensional trappings. Plenty of curiosity but tethered to that amazing 2nd-set logic

Stella Blue

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

transcendent jerry vocal on this one, trying to make sense of how god could allow so much suffering, through the act of making music? whatever you get out of stella blue, wonderful performances from all on this. rose water creme brulee shell for a fire and brimstone stew.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

if you've got some speakers the betty board is on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJbh2ACPIME) takes until transition to start getting deep but when it does it gets at a sunblind shroomy universality
The Music Never Stopped

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

ok wow. this is a wet rembrandt for so many reasons one of them is the amazing deal before it. jerry gets in vinyasa flow and the drummers (who have been spot on all first set) start driving the ship into dinosaurs chasing after their prey territory, such is the forward pushing heaviness. High stepping delivery. Suspenseful gooey magnetic middle jam. And a blistering buffet of peaks.
