Super-fun + life-affirming closer to a blast of a show!

@Satori, I believe the first documented version of Bobby changing the words is 11/24/78 (YouTube that mierda, bruddah, for Jerr + Phil’s reactions alone). Also note 1/11/79, Nassau, “We used to play for acid, now we play for Clive....". Good stuff.

Yeah, super cool version. Top 10 of all-time, in fact. Weird one, but still quite focused like the best of ‘78, which is the zenith.

Yowza - jaw-dropper. Jerr goin’ fully off w/depth + wisdom. Beautiful + heavy version.

Jammin’, for sure. But, man, 4/24 and 1/31 have such far superior + focused Jerr solos.
