Eyes Of The World

Hampton Coliseum

Tribal, thunderous; perhaps because it comes out of Victim and goes into drumz

Jack A Roe

Knickerbocker Arena

Chugs along at a nice clip. It was included on Dozin' At the Knick, which I believe qualified it as heady.

Alpine Valley

1989 was a very good year for Birdsongs. This one deserves consideration along with 10/8/89 and 12/8/89.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Actually played on 9/8/83
The Same Thing
Dec. 31, 1971
Winterland Arena

This performance is an argument for this song having been performed more often when Pigpen was in the band. The only one from March 1967 until his untimely death in 1973.
He's Gone
Dec. 1, 1979
Stanley Theater

Gloria Jam, to be completely, perfectly precise.
Playin' In The Band

Strand Lyceum

This is like the beta-test version of the Veneta 8/27/72 Playing.
