Student Union Ballroom, U. Utah

Like a hot mess that can go mental at any minute - and sometimes do - 69 Dews are bizarrely addictve.

Warfield Theater

Not toooo fast but QUICK - Jer gets nicely strummy on the 1st bridge and they're off to the races - well paced without a gazillion notes (but plenty)

Nice and loose with strong dank factor.

Cold Rain was always my preferred opener (besides Shakedown) as well. Check the Lusk 4/18/71 for another slow take that's pretty interesting.

Too bad you left! and yes it is the GREAT State of Maine :) - I saw these guys in PA, CO, CA (where I've lived) and many places in between but never made it back in the day to a show in Maine where they pulled off some memorable gigs. This 3 night stand was big for me in my hometown after 2 yrs of going to the Spectrum. Ps thanks for the compliment - try to keep it interesting hahaha and always check the Miller!

Put on the phones and wait for energy transference - both tunes deliver DANK jams. Strong contender for tops in the '80s and worthy of consideration for more than 5...
