Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Box of Rain
June 20, 1988
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Soaring late brent period jack in the box opener. headyness in a heady place
Playin' In The Band
Feb. 24, 1973
University of Iowa

fantastic version - Swirling and bold, hivemind locked in, perfect balance of firey exclamation and tasty introspection.
Let It Grow
Jan. 31, 1978
Uptown Theater

check the date dude- explosive version that goes the distance, Wolf is howlin', two devils deviling and five golden rings, this one rules!
St. Stephen
Dec. 31, 1978
Winterland Arena

simply a monster version! grateful dead make rhythm their obedient subject all night, this wily sneaky version no exception. The group is thunderous and exploratory on EVERY song. what a night
Dark Star
Dec. 31, 1978
Winterland Arena

love me my feedback nonsense but takes nothing away from this beautiful chill version, Keith and jerry rippling away into the night with archangels watching remorsefully from the rafters as we wave goodbye to winterland.
