heady rarities abound. For one thing, Jerry interacts with the crowd with a cheerful "how y'all doin?". Then we open set 1 with a firebrand PITB. Big stuff at this show man. love this era a whole lot.

Bringing the goods. Definitely one of those late 70's shows where keith is so fucked up he cant tell his right hand from his left. Not much good playing from him tonight
