Gorgeous! Proof that some truly epic versions are lurking near the bottom of some of these lists.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Worcester Centrum

This is a seriously rocking Scarlet>Fire. Especially the Fire......Very Hot! Love the little Happy Birthday noodle in honor of Brent's B-day. Needs to be kicked up WAY higher in the rankings.

The Omni

Absolutely one of the headiest. This belongs in the top 5 for sure. Great effort all around.
Dancin' in the Streets

Springfield Civic Center Arena

Musta been some kick ass Kool aid downed before this super fun show. I love the roar Bobby lets out that gets Donna cracking up. Totally unprofessional, completely unpolished, rollicking Grateful Dead at their mischievous best. It's a beautiful thing.

Buried treasure! Big highlight is an understatement.........This is a HUGE Sugaree.
