Nice Playin'. Jerry finds a few good riffs. Not usually a fan of late era playins, as Jerry's speedy playing is so integral. He plays pretty well here

Picture perfect. Soaring leads from Jerry and crashes exquistely back into the verse

Hot Playin>China Doll>Playin. Long and exploratory on both ends, especially for 84.

Very hot tour opener. Jerry's playing is excellent. This show is the only good one from this weird little run in Colorado.

Shockingly good. Only good things to say about the Boston Garden run from this tour. These first few nights allayed fears after awful summer tour.

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.
