The rippers from June are well-loved, but this version brings just as much heat. Keith and Billy having fun playing with the 3-on-2 Other One rhythm.

Part of the Dancin' sandwich. The outro jam isn't as deep as Cobo Hall two nights later, but it's certainly good enough to be listed here

"What you got to say, Vince?" Vince says it well, Jerry picks out two great solos, and Bobby's slide solo isn't awful!

Hilarious response by Phil to the "Let Phil sing" chants at the top of this show. "Make Phil sing"?

Jerry's got the hot hands, and Pigpen relishes trading solos with him. A little faster than other versions.

Fox Theatre

That band drop-out is weird... it occurs right after Bobby sings the St. Louis line, so maybe it was some hometown freaks invading the stage to show off? Anyway, props to Bobby for keeping the song on track.

Easttown Theatre

Keith also propels this version along with Phil and Billy.

West High Auditorium

Very nice solo by Brent, and then Jerry completes the solo break in masterful fashion. Something about the Summer Solstice at the Arctic Circle must have suited an ol' grizzly like Jerome ;)

Berkeley Community Theatre

NSFW - Brent's definitely got a bad case of the blues here, but it pays off with some heartfelt vocals and B-3 playing.
