Notable for a 6-min opening jam that comes out of Wharf Rat, very cool, mislabeled "Drums". The GDTRFB smokes too.

What a treat. Why is this show undervalued? C'mon folks, don't let a good AUD scare you. This is a beaut, with the crowd part of the party.

Highlight from the first set. Keith sets it on fire. Jerry is in top form.

The '76 ones ted to plod along a bit too much for my taste, but Jerry tears this one right up with a good shitkickin' solo and great tone.

Continues the run of perfect Mamas from the Summer tour. This one is short and sweet, perfect vocals.

Absolute face melter. Kicks off an absolute dream sequence in the 2nd set.

Keith is woodshedding throughout this. Gives us a master blaster class of razzle and dazzle during the whole number. He's got ten fingers on each hand if he's got one!
Its All Over Now

Teases "Blackbird" in the noodling after, which is honestly my favorite part of this version. Not to disrespect the song, but it didn't move me. This JGB with Bobby doing an acoustic Blackbird sure did, however, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMsS-fIhWuk

Not only is this the first version since 17.06.1975 (not since 1974 as said here), but this may be the very first pure disco beat they played in concert. Disco-dead might not be everybody's favourite cuppa, but it certainly did happen.... Enjoy it you cardboard cowboys!!!

Don't be a heal and head for the exits just yet, trying to get to the parking lot first. They've got one more in them....
