Playin' In The Band

Holy shit!!!! This jam absolutely BURNS with pure psychedelic intensity; the peak is just enormous for such a relatively short version. Possibly the finest of the tour, besides maybe 5/24.

Ballroom

Best of the year imho
The Other One

University of Nevada

This version has grown on me considerably. Lots of wonderful, loose exploration, capped off with a beautiful MLB jam.
The Other One

Wembley Empire Pool

Updated 8-13-13: One of the very, very best of the tour!!!! Garcia absolutely SHREDS after the 1st verse, after which they launch into some awesome Tiger/Caution jamming. Jam after El Paso is also very passionate and jazzy. What a classic!
Sugar Magnolia

Providence Civic Center

Excellent version capping off a legendary second set!
