MSG

Classic China-Rider from a great run. 9/18/87 is legendary, but this show, and a lot of the shows from this tour, just as fantastic.

In any other month in any other year, this entire show would be considered a rip-roaring classic (which it is!!). Donna is awesome.

Raw, ragged, savage, pretty darn profound. Almost a Close Encounter out of Space... Always a gorgeous work in progress... Not the best, but....

Poignant as always. Especially considering they were packing it in, maybe forever…

Gorgeous and urgent. There’s a genuine sadness to this one, especially as it rolls into a poignant Stella…..
