Terrapin Station

Lakeland Civic Center

A particularly present and cozy Terrapin. Attention to detail. Check. Breathy melodicism. Check. OK - this one's ready for display.

Orpheum Theater

This one has the magic. Garcia inhabits the story. Slow, elegiac - delivers the sweet stuff. And patient. Almost forgot patient.

Ripped my mustache right off! Run great show! RUN! Never look back! Be who you're meant to be! Whom?

Springfield Civic Center

High energy, sprightly, bouncy, and (yes) fresh. (fresh) yes. High bounce, high spright. Garcia - a ride down the Nile.

Very tight, very playful. Fitting out the new threads. Lesh is more.
