Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Deal
June 28, 1985
Hershey Park Stadium

meat thrashing, skull punk folding chair smashing Mr. McMahon Fuck you mr benson Deal. Hold onto your hard hats starting around 5 minutes ish, staggering segment of excellently activated GD on full volcanic blast with kreutzmann shuffle fanning, never misses getting a nanosecond ahead of the beat in that tastiest of searching ways, phil bombs did i say? Wish i could listen to this first set on vinyl, exquisite

Bird Song

Ain't Superstitious (Meet Me on the Bottom)
June 28, 1985
Hershey Park Stadium

Hershey Park Stadium
