I don't know what it is about this version...it has vocal miscues, but is just epic at an epic run.

A similar version to most from May 77 with some exceptions. Not sure why the next night at same venue is ranked so much higher.

If all the others are on here from May, this one shuldn't be forgotten. However, most are tough to differentiate from May 77.

At exactly 5:46-50...the notes are just so bright and pop and it happens all evening. That is when you know Jerry is on. Rare for 94, but happened this evening.

This is one of those setlists that looks ho-hum, but the playing this evening is the tightest of maybe any show from 92-95. Every version is one of the best of this era if not the best. The band is on and you can hear the crispness with every tune. I understand, you need to like this era, but I have always been able to find the good with all the eras.

This whole show needs more love. Top 3 show of 1994.

Definitely deserves more love. Maybe not Alpine 89, but has extended jams, tight, and super energetic.
