< Agreed. No way should this be # 1, if any should be really, as it's a bad song to begin with. But let's not sully Brent's contributions by highlighting his worst moments.

Please please please give this show and version more love! The centerpiece of an immaculately played show (Bobby's "Jack Straw" flubs notwithstanding), with everyone super locked in and really vibing off each other.

For me my ranking is 10/1 > 10/14 > 10/5 > 3/16 > / 3/27. Boston is the best for me because of how tight it is from start to finish and how the set list is pretty much perfect at every point with no real duds. 10/14's first set always felt a bit rushed but overall the playing is excellent plus, you know what happens in set 2. 10/5 has a ballbuster of a second set including the crazy UJB. 3/16 has a great run of Jerry ballads and one of the better post 1992 "Dark Stars." 3/27 always alternates with 3/21 and 3/30 for me.
