The notes from Garcia's solo bounce around that centuries old hall like pinballs shot from cannon

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 7, 1989
JFK Stadium

Watching this now and after Jer's solo you can see Mickey mouthing to Billy what I think he say's "We're hot!" They sure we're. Blazing rendition
Box of Rain
Dec. 11, 1972
Winterland Arena

Spot on cuddlybear... This is a well sung and well played Box. Garcia's guitar dances sweetly around the main tune throughout the whole song. Good one!
Here Comes Sunshine
Nov. 14, 1973
San Diego International Sports Arena

Agree with Grendel on this one. They put it on the 30 trips 4 cd set and I gave it a listen again. Have to tell you I was underwhelmed by the music and vocals on this. There are WAY better versions out there. Not to be the comic book guy on this but it certainly lacks the umph and liftoff...
It Must Have Been The Roses
April 22, 1978
Nashville Municipal Auditorium

No worries man! "Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right".....Glad you liked it. If only we could hear this live from the man one more time....
It Must Have Been The Roses

Copps Coliseum

How could hate this song??? Listen to 4/24/78, 4/22/78 any acoustic version from '80 and tell me the same.
