Uncle John's Band

Nassau Coliseum

Nice jammy Uncle John's sandwiched between Shakedown and Playin. I prefer the Eaton AUD over the SBD as of 2/13/23.

Uptown Theater

Really great, lovely extended intro thx to Jerry. Everyone is on point and is a nice transition from the beautiful Comes a Time that preceeded it

Dire Wolf
Aug. 21, 1983
Frost Amphitheater

Despite the lack of vocals at the very beginning this is a great laid back Dire Wolf. The Frost is a nice place to space your face (~):)

The Omni

Phil's singing is really solid on this one, band doesn't stumble over each other.

Turn On Your Love Light

Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium

Valentine's Day '88 - very fitting for them to close with Lovelight. They played Lovelight at every Valentines show. Great band interplay

Feel Like A Stranger
April 4, 1991

LTGTR>Stranger Opener, classic. If you're not a fan of the Vince sound this might be a little off but its HOT regardless
Loose Lucy
Dec. 27, 1990
Coliseum Arena

Strong West Coast (best coast) Loose Lucy. Really builds up till the end, wonderful version
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 24, 1991
Sandstone Amphitheatre

Phil leads the band. Everyone contributes which can be a bit overwhelming but a nice straightforward China>Rider nonetheless
