Really fine take with bluesy TC takes on keys and Jerry smoking the outro.

The whole GANG is having a blast - you can just hear it and feel it. Great force from Bob, throaty DJ, and on point JG accents. Tight!

Civic Auditorium

hahah agree with you both - but there is something endearing about it to me - might be one of the 1st times they played it and there's clearly some more work they needed to do on this but I find it a fun crunchy mess and I am more partial to the early messes of their songs in general than later ones in the 80's and 90's.

Sweltering day out there and they delivered some rippers in anticipation of playing with Bobby D.

An alltime favorite and definitive for the early 80's sound - saw it, loved it (whole show crushes). Agree on the church vibe -Seaman's Chapel confessional happening right here...awesome dankness.
