Lickety split drummer precision here and a stylin' strut in the heart of a great 2nd set.

Solid shitkicker. "As usual, dedicated to our equipment crew". Lol, Bobby.

Sweet slow buildup to an explosion of emotion and Jer's flying guitar work. A strong version.

Powerful version. Is the only reason it's not yet here because only AUDs exist? Jeez Heads, get it together!

Rock solid show opener. Tight from the start. That '77 perfection starts to shine brightly here.

B e s t o n e e v e r. Love how Jerry just doesn't want to stop and grinds out more and more and more.

Around 11:20 Jerry and Keith hit on a new riff that opened up the slow boil onto new terrain. Repetitious? Hardly.... They hit on something that just goes bonkers, turning NFA into hard acid.

Really underrated. This one hits all the high-points, but also shows how much innovation and work they were putting into it. Lots of new effects, echo, and spooky outre weirdness that emphasize how cracked-up the protagonist in the song is. Was it already Dan working the board at this point? Anyone know?

Overlooked. This is a brilliant version.
