Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Mexicali Blues

The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Going back to hear this on a cold winter day in the Great State of Maine - let's just say the entire band CHEWS the shit out of this one.

The Centrum

One of the strongest Estimated energy pulse waves the band rode in '88 - they jump off the board at 5:10 but what a ride...
Big Railroad Blues

The Centrum

Great later BRB - Jerry muscles this one out. The set list for this show is totally killer for late '80's. if only Jerry didn't have a cold. While this BofR is not great - I would never complain getting one for an encore.
