"It's a little tune in honor of this building" - rockin' Samson set opener

Berkeley Community Theatre

Sweet show opener where the *whole* band is on - even as an AUD only you can clearly hear the entire band

Spanish Jam
April 17, 1982
Hartford Civic Center

A rare Spanish Jam without Jerry, but Bobby, Brent, and Phil make it sweet nonetheless

Hampton Coliseum

Superb transition from space into this classic Traffic cover - nailed just right on all levels

The Other One

Onondaga Auditorium

Short but blazing - a personal favorite. Brent's Hammond truly makes this shine. He's Gone>O1 is just such an awesome combo

Billy drives this one throughout - great GDTRFB
Stella Blue

Fox Theatre

The outro jam makes me want to tear up...forever grateful (~):)
The Other One
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

From blazing hot to spacey wonder, this Other One packs it all. The Jerry spacey jam at the end leading into Stella is most enjoyable.
Dark Star

Berkeley Community Theatre

Excellent Star with my favorite part being the jam after about 20 minutes in, veers into lots of fun territory and Phil's tone beginning to shape like how it would sound in '73
