Winterland Arena

Piston Pumpin' version to close '77. Overlooked? This is the 244th version listed. Deserves to climb the pile.

Promised Land

Oakland Auditorium

Definitely on a different trip. Throwaway? Just checked in with and posted three others from this year: 1/18, 5/3, 5/8. The antitheses of no energy.

Monterey Performing Arts Center

Always a pleasure and a privilege to blare this one as they, especially Jerry, turn this inside out, over and over again. Not concerned about the order of songs/ just happy it's here.
