Stella Blue
Sept. 15, 1990
Madison Square Garden

Jerry flubs the cheap hotel, but it's OK. His guitar makes up for it. Check out last couple minutes. Builds beautifully. Just a notch below 9/19.

Scorching. Just flipping through the 1990 Garden run. Surprised this ain't here already. Bruce's 1st official night as a member of the band.

Weird one for sure. Starts as Spanish Jam, Bobby has a great notion, throws in O1 lyrics. Always good pair. Into Stellar Stella Blue-GDTRFB-Around...

Jerry's guitar scorches throughout, with genuine pin drop moments, followed by sweeping beauty. Coda laments for Stella are short but sweet.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 12, 1980
Memorial Coliseum

Around 10 minutes into Scarlet, things get wild, and apparently Mt. St. Helen's was erupting again... Heads exited after scorching show into a storm of ash flurries from up north. Historic night, amazing show!
