Solid (rare) second set BEW. Jam picks up the energy but mellow and concise throughout.

Is it just me or does Bobby play some riffs/chords from the China>Rider jam? Tryna see if I'm not the only one who noticed this

Jerry falters with the lyrics but the playing is masterclass
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Deer Creek Music Center

Soundboard mix really shows how Bobby was beginning to step it up around this time - Jerry's health was deteriorating (hence no '92 Fall Tour) and it was clear his job was more important than ever

Cardinal Stadium

Best of '90? Can't believe this one's overlooked, even with official video released. Just the intro is over a minute long. Follows a rare for the period post-space Truckin'.
