Overall this show isn't a standout, but I love me some nice space. Also dig the "Dark Star" teases at the end!

Worth it to hear what Bobby does to sweet Jane... you'll know it when you hear it. Worth a giggle.

Jerry plays some nice angular lines (ex. first solo), and this features a decent vocal performance.

Everything from this night is well above average. And listen to Keith!

Nice call Moberg! Sweet > from the “Dancin’” fade out. Nice first solo. Drums kick up a notch before the final the end. Crowd loves it. Absolutely worth a listen.

Vocals are good (Donna’s having an on night). Crowd twigs during “in NYC” line. Shorter but very coherent solo from Garcia. Fade out at end performed rather well.

Also, "Estimated" followed by "Jed" is too perverse to pass up.

Moore's AUD is a bit boomy on the low end (I agreed with others on the LMA who thought the band sounded too far away on the other source). I dealt with it (it's not that bad), but if it bugs you, throw it into your favorite editing program. Don't let it deter you from hearing this!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

It ain't my vote! I definitely think this is the better of the two.
