Great second set version after a 45 minute jam and emotive China Doll.

Capitol Theater

Major screw-up of the lyrics here, Pig tries to make up for it and then Jerry just steals the show. I can dig.

Great transition out of Mama Tried! Real cool little western pair in the middle of a fantastic first set

This is always a song that I haven't paid enough attention to until it comes on and I am floored nearly every time... this one especially is fantastic

Most unique version ever? So much emphasis on every note, my goodness this send shivers down my spine. Can't wait for Dave's Picks 33! Also just read the thread between you two reviewers from earlier in the year and I'm happy you guys are finally getting your wish!

Love this show but I'm imagining what it would've been like to be there and i would've gone crazy with all of the teases in this!
