It sounds like Jerry wants to kill the song 3 times, but Bob pushes for more.

Simple Twist Of Fate

Capitol Theatre

Passionate and intense. If this was Jerry playing it with the Dead, people would love it.
Cold Rain and Snow

Augusta Civic Center

I don't get it. The pace is sluggish, the guitar work uninspired. Yeah, they get into the final singalong, but overall this being the best one they ever played?

It sounds like the band is going to kill the song early, but Jerry and Keith push on to a rockin' finish.
Maybe You Know

Berkeley Community Theater

Bad idea.
Death Don't Have No Mercy

Sometimes you read these comments and think - do the Grateful Dead ever sing? Here's props for a great verse by Bob.
