Encore at show that premiered Unbroken Chain live. A warm, coherent, and emotional Brokedown in an era of mediocrity. RIP Jerry

Mile High Stadium

When this show inevitably gets released this will finally get the love and attention it deserves. For now, rest easy my child with only 5 votes

Underrated as hell. The whole sequence of He's Gone>Truckin'>O1>Wharf>Row Jimmy deserves to be heard in its entirety

Capital Centre

Extremely solid show opener - vocals and playing are on point

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
March 21, 1981
Rainbow Theatre
