My birthday show (albeit a few years early). Worth it just to hear what comes out of Bobby's throat at the beginning of the song.

From an all-around great show (the extra accent in the count-in must have caused some smiles)

It sounds like the boys gave a little extra on these "American" songs for their European fans.

Fantastic version. I got turned on to the show from the previous night which is also killer and absolutely worth checking out.

Nice slow groove. Great boogie groove with good lyrical Garcia. Upvote.

Overall I thought most of the first set was pretty bland, and while the second set got off to a slow start, it features some good playing. If you're a fan of this tour, this ending sequence is worth checking out.

Overall this show isn't great, but Brent is a man possessed, and his solo and scatting are why I posted this. Worth going through this tour just to hear Brent!
