Jerry’s tone at this show makes this perhaps the heaviest version ever played!!!

Transcendent version + with Jerr going full-on spacey! (Weird, like the whole show!)

Perfect encapsulation of this show: not a lot of highlights, but absolutely rippin’, at the same time.

Nice version, out of an epic Bertha, both of which need more love!

Don’t let horribly uneducated people like “Heady_V” throw their 5/7 wet blanket on our good vibes! (Stupidity + ignorance are a powerful combination, and “ Heady_V” is high on the worst possible combination of both). This show smirks and pats 5/7 on the head - and indeed that whole mediocre week - and then passes the spliff to those in the know, as we jam out to the *real* shows of the spring tour. (These people are exhausting in their unearned confidence).

The rest of this show is just “fine”. Average ‘77 - Lemiuex cronies looking down on you, Deadhead - but this is a super dope “The Wheel”. So good it’s almost misplaced on this night…
