Not Fade Away
Oct. 6, 1977
Activity Center. Arizona State U

Holy psychedelic juggling devil sticks, Batman! Once people check in here, watch this one climb.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Texas Christian University

The transition's got that brief whip-snap/ jump/ gallop thing going on -- a harbinger of the opening up of future versions.

July 19, 1990
Deer Creek Music Center

Sublime. The band, collectively and individually, masters the swells and ebbs of this lyric-laden song with poise and frolic. As with other shows on this tour, Brent’s ebullient runs are flying high. This is the pinnacle version.

Monterey Performing Arts Center
