Distortion and Wammy bar Weir on this tour. This Dire is very solid.

Let It Grow

The Centrum

Phil busts in to start out the jam and it must have shook the house. Heavy '84 version.
Sugar Magnolia

Sports Palace

Just a great great performance of this song. The band is in full effect to end this show.

One More Saturday Night
March 24, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

Solid version. Original vocs are strong . Not the first time the boys re-recorded vocals.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

Jerry is completely dialed-in to his tone for this Fire. I feel that this may have been the sound he searched for in every Fire. The rest of the band is on as well with contributions abundant throughout. A highly recommended under the radar version.
