Is there such a thing as a mellow Watchtower? This might be it. Goes into a great Dew

Dupree's Diamond Blues

Silva Hall - Hult Center for the Performing Arts

One of those heady, gritty early 80's Duprees. Also Jerry nails the lyrics! No fumbles at all, astonishing really

Lovely show opener, mix is a bit wonky at first but Phil is all over it. Great show all in all!

Peppy Iko to start the night off - good show overlooked by the rest of the run

They take their time for the intro. Right out of space into this Spencer Davis cover. Brent is the MAN!!! Phil in top form too of course :)

Shoreline Amphitheatre

This one deserves more love. Everyone in the band is all over this one. Really love Bobby and Bruce's accents and licks to the song especially
Samson and Delilah

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Jerry has traded his soul to the devil in order to play this scorcher of a Samson.

The Centrum

Very unique intro jam as they come out of Terrapin, takes them over a minute just to reach the pre-verse climax at the start
He's Gone

Stanley Theatre

Ohhh man :) so groovy
Shakedown Street

Greek Theater

This one has all the spunk and funk you want - '81 is a great year for Shakedown. Everybody is nice and clear on the AUD
