Relatively short, given later incarnations, but this one has wonderful energy behind it, deliberate playing, and a delicate finish

Giants Stadium

Very inspired playing. Jazzy swing from the rhythm devils, Lesh is barreling down the low end, and Jerry dancing the leads to a powerful conclusion

This isn't usually my song, but this one totally swings. Super fun

Fantastic opener. Jerry playing some fun licks. Very bouncy, and great way to kick off
