Dire Wolf

Nassau Coliseum
First Dire Wolf of the Vince era - and the playing kills as always. Just a line is butchered but a great rendition of this campfire song regardless

Vince only - and he does quite a fine job. Jerry helps pack a punch as always

Very hot Samson coming out of Eyes. Check out the transition from Eyes into Samson, will not disappoint

Nice first set choice - Jerry flubs some lyrics but the playing is great. Note that this is a Vince only '91 show and he kills

Not Fade Away

Greek Theatre, U. Of California
Nearly gets to some of that primal Dead energy, such a great version is definitely underrated
Eyes Of The World

The Spectrum
NOT performed on this date, last played 9/8/90, next played 9/18/90
Spoonful
Sept. 11, 1990
The Spectrum
There is simply not a better Spoonful around, sorry. Entire second set might comprise one of the top 3 nights of the entire year, let alone the '90s or Vince era. Never really hear the band truly dig THIS deep until parts of Spring 91 and 12/28/91 Same Thing bust out. Incredible leading by Phil in the jam on this one

One of the best of the year melts into the BEST Spoonful not just of the year but ever. R.I.P. Brent

Very nice, unexpectedly deep Estimated. Love the Jerry noodling at the end before he goes all in for Eyes
