They sound angry at this show and in a good way. It really suits the song. Bobby sings it great. I love the downbeat inflection on "in LA."

From the cold depths of 1982. Powerful, imaginative solo with surprising twists and turns. Listen to the matrix.

Jerry's playing is sharp as hell. Incredible sounding AUD for this show too.

When Jerry was on in this era it was phenomenal the way he had feeling and dynamics in the touch of the pick

It's fun when things go so completely off the rails that Jerry is suddenly soloing on different changes and they sing the wrong lyrics on the wrong chords. Bobby fucks this up so much. Jerry is sharp though.

Love the melody Phil plays at the end. He just invents a new tune. Wish everyone played along with it some more.

Jerry lays out crystal clear ideas in the jam, one after the other.

Damn, here I am commenting on this again?? This a sick, psychedelic Bird Song with Bobby leading the charge. Breaks down into pure space in multiple places. No wonder they didn't play Dark Star back then, they didn't need to.
