Sugar Magnolia

Fox Theatre

Really melodic jam, which builds incrementally in velocity and intensity - then, screaming sunshine daydream

Cassidy

Uptown Theater

Very heady jam segment in this one. Show is a sleeper from May

Providence Civic Center

The latter half of a great on-two punch to kick off the show (1/2 step preceding), this Cassidy is an absolute bute. Bob/Jer communication is tight

Boston Garden

Jerry rips a sick intro solo. Hyped up energy

Boston Garden

The 'butt sweat' meter is off the charts for this. Great Brent work and killer peak

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Ok, one of the two most glorified shows of all time (you can guess the other), and for good reason. Kicking China with a hot, bouncy jam, seamless IKYR transition. Powerful version - another jewel in the crown of a timeless show. Haven't spun in a while, glad i revisited

Boys came out the gate like a rabid dog. Jerry sounds like he is going to jump off the stage. Great energy

Wow, first time hearing this. Very sick version! Great band interplay

Holy shit, was about to add this one! Not my favorite song, but they do a nice job with this. Gets my vote
