Sugar Magnolia

Fox Theatre

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

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

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

Deeply hypnotic licks around min 6.

Very beautiful version. The jam is note for note perfect.

Oh man, this quickly vaulted to one of my favorite versions. Completely locked in playing, Billy driving the band, everyone is razor sharp. First MLB jam kills. Easily one of the more inventive and innovative versions. Deserves massive upvotes

Man this one is the goods! Great mellow, ethereal jam for the first 10 or so minutes, then a nice Lesh solo, into a popping Feeling Groovy jam.
