Phildown St. opener in the ginormo dome at Syrabuse. Phil makes this one groovy.

Gold Here. SUBLIME - this is where all the soft touches come together. Bob is especially deft with the underlying patterns. Phil is perfect.

I'm a sucker for China Dolls - this one has Jerry delivering very dreamy vocals on this one.

I am digging the tone and action of what must be an SG Jer's strapped on. Nice one.

Yeah I like this TOO Grendel - and must admit I love '84 since I was knee deep into the scene after starting to see shows in '82... check 4/24/84 for a very similar one and the short diamond studded gem of 4/6/82 - the TOO > Dew is stellar...BTW 4/20/84 goes down as one of my all-time shows...

Do yourself a favor and you use the phones - soundboard hijinks with Jerry's vocal switching channels. Salty solo.

Thanks for the nod Crow - Goddamn if this outro isn't special check that rolling RioGrandeooo.... they waste no time getting to it.... but once there the outro rolls and rolls rolls. Keith's touches are delicate and lovely throughout while Jerry cooks it loooooong and slooooooow.
