Radio City crowd takes the lyrics right out of Jerry's hands. I think even he was a little taken aback by the gesture.

Radio City opening night. Working out tech troubles..but seem to have it dialled in here. Awesome sustained transition..sample hunters take note.

Jerry fumbles the final line, going for "That path is yours" instead of "If I knew the way". Good chuckles were had on stage, and the crowd responds kindly with huge applause and powerful claps to keep the beat strong.

Bobby's vox throughout this Warfield run have been on point. I think the quieter, smaller theater has him keeping the howling down.
