Pauley Pavilion

The band is tight and Jerry doesn't miss a beat. Seems like he's surfing with his guitar lines.

I think Jerry's working ideas out in new places in the fretboard during the "China" solo, and Brent is contributing some interesting colors.

Nice slow shuffle, and Jerry's playing is quite melodic. But he brings the heat at the end (with some help from Keith).

Some nice playing from Jerry in the solos and transition.

Standout solo section with entire band playing interesting lines. Romping, stomping fun. Also not to be missed are some funny Bobby remarks re Phil breaking string (something about a man in a sharp suit smoking a cigar, with wire cutters). Billy AND Mickey’s birthday today (Parish's real birthday) before a surprisingly banging version of “Funiculi Funicula.”

Worth a vote for that super sick peak in the > alone. Everything else is just nasty. Nice one.
