Madison Square Garden

Great version featuring heads up Garcia playing, and some classic late 80's Bobby vocals (with just the right amount of DH weirdness)

Feel Like A Stranger
Feb. 27, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Funky Phil to start, with a Jerry midi finish that I just love (silky silky, crazy crazy night)

Victim Or The Crime

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

This version slips into full blown space at one point, unique version of a under rated song

Great version with plenty of Jerry/ Brent goodness (not a fan of the song? This one may change that)

Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium

Brent blows a few lyrics early on, but he and Jerry more than make up for it in this hometown performance (makes no difference who or where you are)
