This is when I thought the show locked in.

Jerry's just on fire throughout this whole show. They jam the beginning for a while before the first verse at a nice, brisk clip.

Bit slower than the ones I usually groove on, but Jerry's bounce started off a very fine day for me.

Nice shuffle. Jerry and Donna's vocals on this sound great (how many times can you find that?)

Not the best ever, but the live premiere. Listen to the AUD to hear the crowd flip!

Haha bloody Jerry's noodling in with the MIDI in the background between songs. Super high energy, sick. This whole show is so nasty!

The whole band is cooking tonight, and Jerry is on.

I honestly haven't heard this yet, but I think this is one of the most fascinating aspects of Deadhead-dom. I'm really intrigued by the idea of being "in" a song or jam, or "out" of it (transition), where the borders are between them, and how we interpret music that doesn't fit into these categories. Interesting stuff!

Very nice version. Whole show's worth a listen.

This "Space > Wheel" is the business.
