Playin' In The Band

Miami Arena

Playin with reprise is about 18 minutes with common UJB sangwich. Hot version probably just overshadowed by the next night!

Hot Bucket to start this epic show. You can just tell from the opening notes that they were ready to bring it!

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Definitely up-vote worthy. They are firing on all cylinders on this one. Jer rips a new one at the end of Rider. Good call, Sleuth!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Long Beach Arena

Great Scarlet>Fire here! Ur right...if DL would have published this one...It would probably be top 5. My beef has always been with the Mosque S/F and Estimated being ranked so high...likely due to it being his first release.

I will give those shows a listen. I know, one should not mention 94 around here...but I respect all the eras with some being more epic than others. With that being said....those 2 versions can hang in any era.

Totally agree with the above...seemed ho-hum, but then Jerry shreds a little.

Good call! Love that short bit of insanity. My unexpected gems are 3/27/94 Dew and 10/14/94 S/F.
