If you like 11/6 11/9 11/25 I can't see how you miss this cold blooded killer

Kieth and Donna's last Straw and it's almost as extreme as any from winter '79

A night after the concensus number one and it's finnally getting exposure. The recording is AUD too. Rhythm guitar and applouse!

Jerry and Phil are doing those things very well. Then you have Keith ringing his little bell at the right times and Ace is dialed in on 'sharpening swords' in the echo chamber.

I've read reports about the crowd being very light this night and that some heads were able to lay down and day dream next to the stage. '78 ticket sales...EDIT...I was confusing this show with one of the April shows either 4/16 WV and 4/21 Kentucky.. There's a take a step back right after opening Straw, this show was probably oversold, in low capacity venue, and located conveniently along the tracks those savage herds of heads historically abused in the Northeast

Anything from RPI '78 automatically gets an upvote from me. 5778 was my ATM # for years. I have no qualms about declaring 5/7/78 as my 'favorite show'.....What did you think of the FOTD, Cuca?

Not just the hottest JS of '86 but hottest JS from the 80s (excluding '80-'81)
Simple Twist Of Fate

Capitol Theatre

Promontory Rider/Tiger Rose(Hunter), Deal and Midnight Moonlight are my highlights of this night. 1980 JGB was HOT!
