Star Lake Amphitheater

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

Wow! Indeed there is a Mountain! Loud and clear, if brief... Nice!!! Really love this one, takes some great turns....

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!!!

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....
