Bird Song

Giants Stadium

Very inspired playing. Jazzy swing from the rhythm devils, Lesh is barreling down the low end, and Jerry dancing the leads to a powerful conclusion

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

SCREAMING start to the show. Boys attack like rabid dogs. Great Brent solo in here. Welcome to Red Rocks!

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one opens up nicely, and continually unfolds, into a seamless segue into PITB reprise

Boutwell Auditorium

They are playing in Birmingham, the song mentions Birmingham, mass crowd hysteria ensues. Hot version though, so justifiable

Nice rolling, patient, mellow version. Just flows along. I dig
Walking the Dog

Capitol Theater

Filthy, filthy blues licks. Dig this track a lot - not sure why it never made it into rotation. Like a slower tempo Mr. Charlie
Don't Think Twice

Rubber Bowl - University of Akron

Odd heaviness to the rhythm guitar and Dylan vocals. Jerry hits a nice solo though. Interesting to hear as an anomaly, if anything
Goodnight Irene

Civic Auditorium

Not super clean, but definitely fun! I always loved this as a Jerry tune - great to see it was played by the boys. Encore slot is perfect placement

Dean Smith Center - University of North Carolina

Flawless version. This got a lot of spins in the nono household this weekend. Jerry is ON for this one
