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

Very solid version. Video shows Jerry present and very into it.

Legitimately fantastic. Flows right out if I want to tell you. Mid jam seems to never end and heads into the next dimension thanks to Jerry seriously showing up. Worth a listen, and i think David Gans would agree because he played this on dead hour.

Jerry really wants to go into comes a time during last few minutes in the meltdown but the band isn’t interested. Too bad!!!

Honestly can hold its own with any jammed out 80s/90s deal. Rollicking version. SPRING TOUR 94 WAS HOT

Seriously dank one, incredibly hot jam and perfect re entry, most definitely best of the year.

Weird speedy version. Jam doesn’t really go anywhere, especially disappointing for how long it is. 3/30 is definitely the stronger 94 version.
