Maybe just another Wheel, but this show, especially after the Lay Me Down, felt to be all about recovering after saying good-bye to Brent.....

Great version! Great show!
The Wheel

Beacon Theatre

Can't believe this isn't here already! Nice! All Wheels of 76 are amazing and gorgeous, no matter how short and sweet. Tremendous show. This Wheel is nearly as great as the one from the night before. And so is the show. Tremendous. Flows out of groovy Dancin' into powerful Sugar Mag-Scarlet-Sunshine...

If we count the jam after drums as still the Alligator (and...why not?!), then absolutely, gotta agree... really cool Alligator!!!
