Super hot show opener, Jerry is here to PLAY! Speedy licks all over. Possibly the best first set of the year, although totally unknown show.

The very slow tempo that a lot of first set songs had in 1992 suits this one wonderfully.

Probably the most underrated version in the history of Bird Songs. Incredible jazzy jamming from Jerry that peaks extremely hard.

Just exactly perfect. Slow, emotive, and well-played. Jerry's old-man vocals fit this one perfectly.

Legitimately fantastic. Flows right out if I want to tell you. Mid jam seems to never end and heads into the next dimension thanks to Jerry seriously showing up. Worth a listen, and i think David Gans would agree because he played this on dead hour.

Jerry really wants to go into comes a time during last few minutes in the meltdown but the band isn’t interested. Too bad!!!

Honestly can hold its own with any jammed out 80s/90s deal. Rollicking version. SPRING TOUR 94 WAS HOT

Seriously dank one, incredibly hot jam and perfect re entry, most definitely best of the year.

Weird speedy version. Jam doesn’t really go anywhere, especially disappointing for how long it is. 3/30 is definitely the stronger 94 version.
