Ramble On Rose

Cal Expo

1989 was a banner year for this song. Brent is on fire and Jerry is, well, Jerry. Killer version.

The symbolism of playing this one at Keith & Donna's last show makes this one significant. Great version.

Really strong version. Jerry's vocals are particularly sharp and playful here. Bobby and Brent deliver big here.

Soldier Field

This should be higher as well. The whole band absolutely attacks the song. It has a punch few others do.
Shakedown Street

Soldier Field

MASSIVE jam here. Jerry and Bruce destroy this one. Top 5.
Dark Star

Alexandra Palace

This should have 100+ votes. It's an absolutely massive version. So quiet and pretty most of the time than just frightens the shit out of you unrelentingly. Incredible version; Billy is on fire here.
They Love Each Other

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Love this version a lot. Jerry's on fire every second of the first set.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Madison Square Garden

One of the very best post-Brent performances of any song. Jerry is as good as he's ever been here.
