Jerry's mic craps out at the beginning and as per usual he mangles the words, but the solos are rippin'!

Gorgeous version, like most versions. Jerry sounds so sweet here.

Nearly 20 minutes...good jamming on the main theme before a very nice melt down later on. Not quite 12/16/94 but still very good.

Completely torched. Jerry hits his solo like they owe him a million a dollars.

Hell in a Bucket

Soldier Field

This should be higher as well. The whole band absolutely attacks the song. It has a punch few others do.

Soldier Field

MASSIVE jam here. Jerry and Bruce destroy this one. Top 5.

Alexandra Palace

This should have 100+ votes. It's an absolutely massive version. So quiet and pretty most of the time than just frightens the shit out of you unrelentingly. Incredible version; Billy is on fire here.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Love this version a lot. Jerry's on fire every second of the first set.

Madison Square Garden

One of the very best post-Brent performances of any song. Jerry is as good as he's ever been here.
