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.

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

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 (~):)

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

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

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

The Spectrum

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

It should be criminal to open a show with this much funtastic energy
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
March 21, 1981
Rainbow Theatre

Exquisite jam in between leading up to Rider - March of '81 has some great China>IKYR's
