Greek Theater - University of California

Perfect final chorus. Love it when Garcia chimes in with 'and you got yours!'Like he's directly speaking to his bandmates

The Spectrum

Man, you've earned the right to list at least 10 TMNS that I thought were mine to share.. It's the best way to end a set and easy to listen to(I skip the lyrics when I go 'hunting'...shhhh)

Hampton Coliseum

First set kind of drags until the vicious flurry of LLR, Althea and the raucous TMNS knocks us out just long enough to not miss set two's opener. You really can't go wrong with any '77-80 and 91-94 TMNS

Augusta Civic Center

The first set Jack, Stagger, Jimmy and TMNS are just 4 reasons why I love this show.

Winterland Arena

This is probably my favorite Winrterland run and 10/17s country dominated set list and style was unique Great Stagger just as every other '78 Winterland Staggo

Community War Memorial Auditorium

It's becoming rather obvious some people around here won't touch an aud. This show is available in aud and SBD and the aud adds intensity due to hearing crowd react exactly how you'd expect them.
