Awesome version with Bobby all but blowing his voice out on the screams. On 30 Days of Dead sandwiched between Shakedown and Eyes.

I can't believe I'm the first to submit this. Such a killer segment, especially "Space" with its incredible Spanish jam that's one of the best.

Hell in a Bucket

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
Sept. 10, 1974
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
Sept. 22, 1993
Madison Square Garden

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