Winterland Arena

Nice locked in version. 13 minutes of what a Playin' should be.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

This show is often overlooked, but excellent on its own merits. Opens with a bang with a powerful Might As Well.

I really love this Supplication. It starts pretty chill and then catches fire.

I have been waiting for this release for years. It was my second show I played from the 30 trips, just behind Cape Cod 79. The wait is finally over for these 2 important shows in GD history.

One of my favs. Musically, it is extremely well played, but also has one of the best vocal reprises that I know of.

This one really soars. Should be higher. It has some hot peaks. Not sure why this show doesn't get more love outside the Dew.

Just one of the many great treats this evening. Easily one of the best ever.
