Blazin' hot smokeshow of syncopated bends, slides, and hammer ons that turns the intensity up to 11

Poplar Creek

Clarence Clemons sits in for the whole show and really is a great addition. They rock this Let It Rock better than anywhere else I have heard anywhere

a great version of my favorite Brent song which I happened to see live with a woman who you'd have to say was more of a rollercoaster
Not Fade Away
Dec. 31, 1985
Oakland Coliseum

I was at this show and at that time was not familiar with the NFA thing and was quite blown away to see it happen spontaneously on New Year's Eve and in fact to start the whole show before the Dead even did NFA!

Drums -> Space
April 14, 1984
Hampton Coliseum

My first show, I was not prepared for Drums>Space, psychedelicized me! Mickey went off on the Beam and the hanging drums. Other stuff that can't be put into words...

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Tight with excellent keys from Brent. Don't know why they stopped doing this one. Love you till you die.
