China Cat jam after the drums is awesome....and if that isn't enough, We Bid You Goodnight jam to cap it off

Don't hate on BIODTL, he's right - Bobby kills this song especially on this tour, every version is so great (the Harpur College acoustic version is my fav Bobby vocal performance)

Prefer the second Playin to the first at this show. Really interesting stop on this tour! Here's what I found about this TV performance from dead.net: https://www.dead.net/features/73174/4th-annual-grateful-dead-meet-movies-beat-club-42172
