Submissions

Wharf Rat
June 16, 1985
Greek Theater

Honored to be the one to submit this one even if I'm shocked it's not here. This is an outstanding version. Brent is spectacular here on all fronts.
2
Sugar Magnolia
March 23, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Out of "Stella" comes a thrashy, supercharged, cocaine infused "Sugar Magnolia" that's just delightful.
3
The Other One
Sept. 26, 1991
Boston Garden

The Magnificent Seven lineup of 1991 strike again with this trippy little concoction. Flows beautifully into verse 2 of "Dark Star."
4
Space
Oct. 31, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Ferocious beam banging. Disembodied Vader voices. Frightening, unhinged "Space." Leads perfectly back into "Dark Star."
5
Friend of the Devil
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Outstanding version with beautiful keyboard work from Brent. Can't believe this one hadn't been posted yet.

They Love Each Other
Dec. 18, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Excellent version.
Uncle John's Band
Dec. 18, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Give this one some big love. Very similar to 10/5/1994. Explosive jamming after a very tight and spirited body of the song.
Alabama Getaway
May 7, 1980
Barton Hall - Cornell University

Jerry fucking annihilates the solo here. You can't sit still here.
Brown Eyed Women
May 16, 1981
Barton Hall - Cornell University

Fast paced beauty with soul. Barton Hall always seemed to welcome this song.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

It's definitely between this and 6/14/91 as the best post-Brent version.
