MSG

Classic China-Rider from a great run. 9/18/87 is legendary, but this show, and a lot of the shows from this tour, just as fantastic.

In any other month in any other year, this entire show would be considered a rip-roaring classic (which it is!!). Donna is awesome.

Raw, ragged, savage, pretty darn profound. Almost a Close Encounter out of Space... Always a gorgeous work in progress... Not the best, but....

Earlier, Bobby asks the crowd which needs to be louder, A, the voices or B, the instruments. The crowd roars with B. Like everything else at this show, this Hard to Handle is even more powerful thanks to them cranking up those instruments!!!

The sense of urgency as they surge into GDTRFB... it was the last time the original five were the only ones onstage...

Maybe Weir wishes he was a headlight on a northbound train, maybe because Jerry was lost in the flaming sparks falling from the subway trains pulling in above and beyond the stands....
