A little too reserved - not a fan of this slower tempo.

Friend of the Devil

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Underrated run of shows. 1991 had a lot of highlights and these 4 shows from Oakland are all very good.

Guys - you forgot to fit Sunshine Daydream in somewhere. As the instrumental break post vocals starts, Bruce sits back and lets Jerry take the lead and after a while, he jumps and and has some fun.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

UIC Pavilion

Jerry nails the instrumental break. A rollicking good version.
The Mighty Quinn (Quinn The Eskimo)

Hampton Coliseum

For a non-jam encore, there is a short, but sweet instrumental break.

Having similar melodies, it almost sounds like they're going going to play New Speedway Boogie. It's got that great intensity, focus and execution like so many great tunes played in 1991.
