Truly proves there was some magic on every tour. The outro jam is unreal hot, with Jerry, Vince, and Bruce battling it out. Crazy stuff here!

Jerry gets really into it in the second half. Not lifechanging, but fun

Excellent, hard-charging version from arguably the best show of 87. Bobby stuttering all over the verses

God i love Donna. Phil sounds great too. People shit on him but that “long long time to be THEEEEEERE” is beautiful.

Soldier Field

Pretty hot version with nice Jerry licks and harmonies and bob giving it his all. Shining moment of this first set for sure.

I listen to this one a lot. If there's a more deep and soulful version (and show, tbh) i don't wanna hear it.

This one needs some more love, fantastic outro with great Phil vocals, you can hear the crowd go crazy on any of the auds every time he chimes in on "across the lazy river". First one in 3 years and whole band really brings it

Super lovely. Weir's playing is tolerable and the vibes are immaculate overall
