Freedom Hall

In addition to the great playing throughout this first set, you can grin at the several musical references to the Derby that the boys threw in.

Light first half of a titanic encore. The anniversary's coming up, might as well give the show a listen...

I know most folks are indifferent re this song, but this type of mid-tempo bouncing shuffle is one of the things I love most about this band.

Nice call gdtrfb, I love these Lee AUDS. This one sounds very nice, and the crowd is rowdy! Here's the version I checked out: https://archive.org/details/gd1970-03-21.late.aud.lee.pcrp.21779.shnf

Great call Cuse! I stumbled into this show, and this is wonderful! Well worth a listen!
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

West Palm Beach Auditorium

My current theory, though I need to check out its placement in the rest of the tour, is that the quirk comes from the fact that Garcia is exhausted but they're playing really well as a band and make it happen collectively.
