Augusta Civic Center

Whopping marimba-laden, a hot, and wobbly excursion into '84 Space. Luxuriantly gorgeous though threatening.

Slinky and sermonlike.

Totally mammoth china rider from a really out there gig.
We Can Run
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Damn I love that hell-or-high-water bawling controlled tenor of Brent Mydland. Burning cut from the shooting star of him
Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

A side note, as with so many tomes of that bard and poet of the soul's misanthropic landscape, observer of the plight and vice in worldly society, Bob Dylan, it's a feat to remember all those words on our ol' bobby's part and he sounds great
Franklin's Tower
Sept. 29, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

What to say about Franklin's Tower.... a tune that feels like comin' home but yet with a wary eye behind you, never knowing what's gonna happen. "Some come to laugh their past away, some come to make it just another day". Chill exploration on those uber-classic chord changes and impassioned delivery from Brent and Jerry on this.
