Nice, over 10 minute version. Its obviously a warm-up to the 77 versions, but this one has some great moments.

Unique LIG here. It is more chill, but well jammed. Its good, just different.

This is an excellent version and definately competes with the May 77 versions. This DP has a lot of good stuff.

A nice 10 minute meaty FOTD. This show needs to be listened too. Maybe not a crazy setlist, but some epic playing.

I know its just a jam, but this DS is well developed and is as good as any of the shorter DS's of the 90's.

Overrated. Tuscaloosa smoke this. It can't be better than 5/8 if its not even better than 5/17.

I do love this version, but its not 2nd best of all time. Maybe top 20.

I love this run, this one is very good, but not up there with 5/8 and 5/17 or even 5/11. All three nights of run are perfect tho.

This whole first set is epic. Aside from the fire works to come the next night.
