Pauley Pavilion

The band is tight and Jerry doesn't miss a beat. Seems like he's surfing with his guitar lines.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Assembly Hall

I think Jerry's working ideas out in new places in the fretboard during the "China" solo, and Brent is contributing some interesting colors.

Nice slow shuffle, and Jerry's playing is quite melodic. But he brings the heat at the end (with some help from Keith).

Some nice playing from Jerry in the solos and transition.

Space

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

Honest terminology question: I always thought Space was the post-hiatus, (usually) post-drums bit?

This needs some love, it's a killer version.

Incredible version. Outstanding jam, and things fall apart perfectly into GDTRFB.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Billy is smoking!
Here Comes Sunshine

Baltimore Civic Center

This whole show looks like it needs some love. Less jamming on the earlier versions, obviously, but really well-done.
