Deer Creek Music Center

6 tracks pre-drums, a set chock full of patient, far-reaching playing. This is a perfect party time palate cleanser, searing.

A version that earns the submission. Inspired and filled out. Night prior is hot and the Deer Creek magic reigns.

Omg, how many times did the Dead play at Winterland ? It's for all intents and purposes, their home base of this decade, I would argue. Amazing, tight and classic Bertha kicking off this gig - always a fun one to time travel. It was on this day 41 years ago.
