Super hot show opener, Jerry is here to PLAY! Speedy licks all over. Possibly the best first set of the year, although totally unknown show.

The very slow tempo that a lot of first set songs had in 1992 suits this one wonderfully.

Probably the most underrated version in the history of Bird Songs. Incredible jazzy jamming from Jerry that peaks extremely hard.

Just exactly perfect. Slow, emotive, and well-played. Jerry's old-man vocals fit this one perfectly.

Super fun version from an incredibly hot and solid 94 show. Vince sounds awesome on the barroom style piano solo

Smokin version, agree with above comments that Brent’s tinkly keys actually sound fantastic here. Jerry’s ripped up vox are fun too.

Great one. Strong vocals and great entry entry into the big last solo. Not top 10 or anything but very solid.

Jerry’s really into it. Vocals are HEAVY. Great solo too. There isn’t a bad version of this one.

Honestly pretty darn hot especially for summer tour 94. This is just a special show. Fun stuff and you can tell Jerry was really trying to pull his weight.
