Show is proving to be a real hidden gem. Mt St Helens was allegedly erupting nearby for the 3rd time during Fire. Really hot Scarlet and on-point Fire

WOW! Quickly pushed to the top of my list for favorite version ever! Amazing initial jam, then they bring it to a whisper, then - massive peak (17min)

I am not really a fan of this era, but this version is incredible. Patient build, beautiful execution. Such emotive playing

Yup, classic. My favorite (if forced to choose)

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

I scooped this show not too long ago. This version is certainly one of the most exploratory I know of. Jam gets dicey in the later minutes - she's a deep cut.

Yeah, this one definitely deserves dap. Haven't spun in a minute - holds up fantastically!

Yup, another hot version for a hot show
