SHOCKED this one wasn't mentioned yet. Even with the crushing cut out in the SBDs, this version still stands at the top

Very hot, tight jam segment. Song has the best lyric ever written: "Let your life proceed by it's own design"

By all accounts, this is a rather goofy song, but i love this version. Entire show is spot on

This one is spot on

Hill Auditorium

This obviously wasn't the opener; Mac auto-type fail

Rich Stadium

I could NOT get this to post. I tried and it came out as 1/1/65. Bar none, my favorite Bertha. The mid jam is absolutely sublime. Jerry hit a perfect note that will forever standout in my head
Walking Blues

Merriweather Post Pavilion

I don't even necessarily like this song, but the buys crush this front to back. Bobby even has some nice supportive axe work

Jeeze, He's Gone -> Smokestack -> Cryptical -> Drums -> (Awesome) Space. Hard to ask for a better sequence. Bad ass
