U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Winterland Arena

An overlooked version because of the famous movie version from the 19th October, but good and on the money.

William and Mary College Hall

They really groove on the outro vocals-no shrieking,just driving on and on. Not at the top but a VG 78 version

Thank you so much for leading me here. What a beautiful performance. I want this played at my funeral.
Doin' That Rag
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

A 5star+ show. I think one of the very best of 1969.
Deal
Nov. 16, 1978
Uptown Theater

they kinda get out of step during the first solo, Jerry flubs the lyrics(it's Deal for chrissakes) 22 April 78 or March 1981 streets better for post 76 Deals.
Truckin'
Nov. 5, 1977
Community War Memorial Auditorium

is this the correct date? IA doesn't show Truckin' being played this night.
Bird Song
Aug. 25, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Just a wee note-in light of the solution to the Betty Tapes saga and Dave and the gang now having them in the vaults- I understand that these Berkley shows are among the haul. Maybe a nice box set for next year?
