4
Friend of the Devil
Poignant yet not somber, slow but not dragging; Mellow serene and emotive; Very strong full band interplay.
4
New Minglewood Blues
A roaring Minglewood; Check Weir's good slide solo, Garcia's ripping solo; Some fat Phil and some Gospel Brent.
15
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
A quick and driven entrance into the Help featuring Brent and Phil filling elusively and Jerry nailing it; Very intricate Knot; Infectious Franklins.
11
Playin' In The Band
A cannon into outer space; Enters uncharted territory; Reminiscent of 73' DS jams; Locked and zoned in jamming.
7
Brokedown Palace
A really *really* great Brokedown encore. A highlight of the entire tour for sure.
10
Deal
Distorto Jerry is throwing sparks at you! Play then hit repeat - Bob throws a mental scream in at the end -thank me later.
2
Promised Land
Jerry blows the doors off this one. Brent cranks the B3 up nicely on this one too. Rippin' early 80's style here.
3
Franklin's Tower
Franklin's Power - check it and you will see. Plus a sweet serenade from Jer towards the end. SBD/Aud all good.
