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."

Fantastic version. I got turned on to the show from the previous night which is also killer and absolutely worth checking out.

Nice slow groove. Great boogie groove with good lyrical Garcia. Upvote.

Overall I thought most of the first set was pretty bland, and while the second set got off to a slow start, it features some good playing. If you're a fan of this tour, this ending sequence is worth checking out.

Overall this show isn't great, but Brent is a man possessed, and his solo and scatting are why I posted this. Worth going through this tour just to hear Brent!
