The addition of Keith to this tune is frickin awesome! He kills it here as well as the rest of the boys.

Think this might be my favorite! A ROCKING version for sure. Would also recommend checking out the instrumental song Hideaway that they play after this. Tons of energy in this show.
Truckin'

Broome County Arena

Truckin' is one of my favorite songs but this version just isn't a favorite of mine... Much prefer 5/19/74, 5/26/72, and 9/21/72 but this one is still definitely up there. I need to listen to this one again though for sure.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

The ending jam of Fire in this one just rocks. Best part IMO

I love this song as the first set closer. Great spot and great opportunity to rock out
