Great second set version after a 45 minute jam and emotive China Doll.

Major screw-up of the lyrics here, Pig tries to make up for it and then Jerry just steals the show. I can dig.

Great transition out of Mama Tried! Real cool little western pair in the middle of a fantastic first set

legendary intro, made my day before even starting the show! (And this song rocks in all it's acoustic glory)

Don't like this one as much as 5/19 but that might be because of the segue that one comes out of.... This NFA>GDTRFB and the WRS>DS>China Doll make for a monster second set here. Incredible transition out of NFA, though, might be one of the best I've ever heard

Super laid back, a new favorite.... Just so damn smooth! And that transition into Dark Star is incredible. A must listen!
