San Francisco Civic Auditorium

Extra heady free jazz jamz in the middle, of course the start is completely botched with Jerry apparently forgetting the opening riff

Solid performance with aching and reaching singing, instruments on point.

vocally pretty bad, but Jerry tears up the guitar. Vocal coda is handled well

Solid later year version. Jerry is dialed in and vocals and guitar are on point

The Music Never Stopped

Berkeley Community Theater

This set was quite subpar until "That's alright mama" performed before TMNS. That one smokes, and this TMNS is really creative with Brent doing some different melodies at the ending jam

Hofheinz Pavilion

Oh hell yeah, Kieth is also killing this one
Franklin's Tower

Cumberland County Civic Center

very cool version tonally and vibe wise, although Jerry doesn't really light it up like I expected

Cole Field House

early-mid 80s terrapin seems to have a more interesting, mellow and drawn out middle section. Cool stuff!
