Bobby belts it, Keith slides in perfect synchronicity. Don't miss the surprise " Johnny B. Goode" parts Garcia throws in.

In the transition in from "Wheel," you can hear some of the ideas Garcia brings into his solos during the mid- and late- May "TOO"s

The chords and initial drum beat said "NFA," the the groove kept saying "Iko."

Garcia's voice actually sounds pretty good tonight, and he's clearly glad to be singing throughout this whole show.

Also, the feedback that happens after is a must hear. Very musical and has the pure crystalline quality of warm cosmic whale song.

A very good version. Everything before and after the atrocious sound in the middle of the set should be heard.
