Might As Well

Civic Center

Had to add this one from my personal favorite memories, after Jerry’s belting out, “Take that ride Again” just slams into his solo, many many highligh

Civic Auditorium

Had to add this version just for the “The Grass Ain’t Greener, the Wine Ain’t Sweeter…” line. Probably the best version I saw live. Give it a listen.

Ramble On Rose
Nov. 30, 1980
Fox Theatre

Great nomination, I didn’t know this version, just got Dave’s Pick’s Vol 8, and if you are listening to any other source, stop. Buy it, borrow it, download it, just get it, it sounds amazing. A very nice pace to this version and Jerry’s vocal are still sharp, unlike most of the other 80’s versions. Powerful “Goodbye Mama and Papa”, Give it a listen and get DP Vol 8.

Sure glad we have video of this standout version. If you have seen it or listened to it, this version would be rated higher.

Good version for sure, I like the 3 (top ten) stand-out 78’ versions better, 04-24_Normal, IL., 07-08_Red Rock and 12-31_Winterland. Can’t argue with Jerry’s’ vocal enthusiasm, good choice.

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

All of the Jerry ballads, slower tunes from this two night run at Red Rocks are outstanding. Hopefully these two nights gets an official release someday, if we only had a video of Jerry belting out this version. Edit-Now that this has been released July 78' Box Set it should have more votes, the version before this one, 7/3/78 St. Paul totally rocks as well.

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

The drummers are a beast in the version, Jerry’s vocal are spot on. One of the better first sets of any year. Recently released on Dave’ Picks Vol 7, which sold 12,000 copies, so this version needs a few more votes.
