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

New Minglewood Blues

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

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

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

Uncle John's Band

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

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

Promised Land

Boutwell Auditorium

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

Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

Absolutely lovely version. Jerry's vocals are spot on and crisp.
Morning Dew

Nassau Coliseum

This is so perfectly paced. Delicate and patient, to a chilling peak. Love instances where the boys show that they can still dial into the magic in the later years.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

Always loved this monster Fire. Such a deep cut - very heady for any era. Oregon sparked the best in the boys
Jack Straw

Meadowlands Arena

Phil is all over this like stink on a monkey. Jerry shred drives the crowd into a frenzy. Super peaky finish. Choice!

Carrier Dome, Syracuse U

The jam in this is super hot and creative. Relatively short it may be, but this packs a nice punch.
