Great guitar work highlights this version, Jerry is dialed in from the get-go. Great show.

Posted the wrong date before; anyway, this is a scorcher.

Don't sleep on this one - super dark and intense version.

Great version that gets really spooky towards the end. Very nice exploratory passages with Jerry, Brent and the Devils especially shining.

An utterly whacked out version. Healy's vocal effects are just plain weird.

Give Vince credit - he's terrific here. Rockin' version.

Vinny's tone in the early shows is really great and reminds me of the 1960s' surf rock sound.

Jerry is also in pretty strong shape vocally. A little tired but clear and soulful.

The "Shakedown" from the 10th is a monster worth checking out!
