Fast but very neat and tight. Cool version from the best run of 1986.

Motherfucker out of "Cold Rain & Snow." Shit hot and rockin'. A bit sloppy but full of energy.

Vince is admittedly awful here, but Phil and Jer make up for it. Cool version.

Not a great show, Jerry still finding strength after the coma. This BRB, however, smokes.

Always the little song that could in any set it appeared in. This one rocks.

Really strong jamming on this one. Phil is really on his game here.

This is a very good version; Jerry fucks up the 'rent is in the rears' verse, but he takes a very nice extended solo that's worth your time. He finishes strongly, too. Very good show following the epic 10/1. Take out "Childhood's End" and you have a spectacular set list.

Vince is awesome on this version.

Another heater that needs to get way up in the rankings. Brent hijacks this one and leaves the rest of the band in the lurch.
