There will be no more songs...only Jam.

No skid on this ride. Seamless and sync'd, a (rare) flawless vocal from Jerry, and who else but Brent to take us to space.

Typical sloppy '80 Jed, until Jerry starts inventing scales. It's like he finds a wormhole to a parralel notational grid.

Greensboro Coliseum

How dare Jerry defile the dissociative sanctity of the Wharf with such a filthy rip

Single AUD source roughly patched and INC, but sure glad they caught Jer's solo here. Awesome show and it doesn't sound too bad considering..

Coming out of the debut of Far From Me (first time he sang a lead?), Brent really had to win the crowd back and delivered Aces.

Jerry really cooked himself through this show..(odd?) night off 12-29 and pretty uninspired on 12-30. Recharged for NYE but can't top this one.

Having some stereo/streaming trouble, so I had to back up and listen to this cut about 10 times. Never my favorite tune...but never say never and Row Jimmy Row.

To hell with lyrics and to hell with the dusty 70's. We want hard shreds and funky jams, and we're damn well gonna get it for the next 10 trips 'round.

Sun so HOT tonight!! Past 2 nights of the run were a little stiff...knew we were saving the fire for NYE. Welcome to the 80's...fast approaching the best few years of the Dead (come at me and NFA)
