Love this song when it's as hot as this set closer, am not a fan at all when it's not played well. Probably my most on the fence Dead tune but boy do they kill it here. Bobby as high energy as ever

I am a sucker for Feelin' Groovy but this China Cat is red hot all the way through with a tremendous transition into Rider. Not to be missed for sure - definitely underrated following the PNC show from the 22nd. Rider is also great here, just full of energy like any great China>Rider from this era! Rider might be better than 6/22..?

This whole show is just so Miami Dead, it's perfect. Also BIODTL is a banger
