Great guitar work highlights this version, Jerry is dialed in from the get-go. Great show.

Posted the wrong date before; anyway, this is a scorcher.

Don't sleep on this one - super dark and intense version.

Great version that gets really spooky towards the end. Very nice exploratory passages with Jerry, Brent and the Devils especially shining.

An utterly whacked out version. Healy's vocal effects are just plain weird.

Jerry is playing this one for Brent.

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

This one's awesome. It can hang with 3/27/94 and 3/20/92 as one of the best late era "Other One"'s. This whole second set is awesome.

10/17/94 is not better than this one.

Do not go to this one if you want to hear mind busting peaks with flamethrower solos from Jerry. What makes this one shine is its subtlety, but more importantly the tight rhythmic dynamic between Phil, Bruce and the drummers.

Would've been first since 3/27/93 at the Knick.
