12 minute version coming out of "Space," weird and intense transition and the whole band attacks the song.

Briskly paced but totally tight and emotionally present from start to finish. Jerry's on fire this whole show (best of 1987).

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Thunderous. One of the best stand-alone's I've ever heard.

"Eyes" was not done on this date, it's the show from the "30 Trips" box.

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Yet 7/17 was just as good as the next two, go figure. Really shows that even at their best they could be pretty unpredictable.

This is an absolute train wreck of a performance from start to finish. This whole show is shockingly low quality for a year that contends to be their best, and this "Saint" is the nadir: tragically low energy, hilariously off vocal from Bobby, and the whole band sounds like they have no idea what they're doing, really. Brent was especially off this show. Unique and exciting looking set list but they execute this one poorly.

Had no idea they didn't play this one for nearly two years (I always assumed this was one of those songs that never, ever fell out of rotation), but that makes it all the more special.
