Whopping late '77 version of this, the Dead intuitively coasting the waves of the atmosphere's collective imagination.

Playin' In The Band

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

Set 2 levels up a heady slot with whimsical fright and weight provided by a heavy brew of twilight theatrics. Menacing. Actually shows incredible restraint in that respect for a while visionary peripheral drones picturesquely placed. Then drops in upper cuts and antiheroic poundings
