This entire show, especially second set, feels like the true Brent tribute. First after his death, Bob's singing is beautiful, band playing impeccably

Simply put, incredible. Second one after Brent's death, Vince only still. Really excellent playing on everyone's part, even Vince is trying to dig in

They don't call it a Throw>Away encore for no reason - decent end but no real jamming highlights

Top notch Wharf takes me by surprise, especially this Vince solo show. Jerry is emotive when he sings, good sign

Alabama Getaway

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Holy shit HOT Alabama despite the mix issues as typical with the first song. One of the best??? Underrated for sure standing at 5 votes as of me writing this

Really great 2nd set opening Terrapin with great jamming and an interesting segue into Dewimmina
