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

Maybe it's just me but the keyboards give it a bit of a Calypso vibe

"It being Sunday we're gonna start out with a spiritual number" - Bobby at the start. Indeed

The execution on the Organ is insane - R.I.P. Brent
The Other One

Truly underrated - give it a spin and try telling me this ain't Heady
