Just good enough for DP #1 people. How could this be left off the list?

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Pauley Pavilion - University of California
Ok. All Dead is subjective to a point..... but this is CLEARLY a top 5, if not top 3, version. Why so few votes? I can only assume people aren't listening. This is the highlight of the 1st set IMO. Great pick china rider !
Playin' In The Band

People always talk about the HCSS from this show, but this PITB is first tier.
Playin' In The Band

Alexandra Palace
This version is far superior to many on this list. The Ally Pally shows seem to get no love but there are some incredible moments from these shows. This is one of those moments.
