Sugaree
Sept. 26, 1980
Warfield Theater

The oft-overlooked electric sets from the Warfield/Radio City acoustic runs. '77 be damned, THIS is a Sugaree.

Bobby making sure this show doesn't get lost in the shuffle. Great ad-libs, and the full howling range we love.

Whole show is a hidden classic- but whatever you do DO NOT skip this Sugar Mags. Truly seamless after the set break, Dead at their finest.

Me and My Uncle

Jerry manages to fit even more extra notes in, despite this being a way uptempo cut. Maybe the most seamless trans into Big River.

To Lay Me Down

Warfield Theater

After a bit of shaky night opening night to the Warfield acoustic run, the nerves have settled and we're into perfection

"We figured, 'what the fuck?' Might as well try it." Incredible to hear how uncomfortable Jerry is without an impenetrable decibel force between the crowd. Certainly he's no stranger to playing acoustic, but coming out so raw in a proper Grateful Dead show? Shook.

A rare, sloppy Brokedown tonight, and boy did they ever earn it.

Easy to get swept up in Jerry, but I was taking a different ride on Billy's hi-hats. Combination of the tape + my EQ but mostly he's just laying it down straight as an arrow.
