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

Perfect summer version for sure. Just sweet.

Was about to come say what Grendel had already said. Cynically, Jerry's definitely trying to save a song that he fully whiffed by giving it a vocal reprise (which is pretty nice, sure), but there are multiple other HUGE ones from 94 and this one doesn't deserve to be so high. 3/21 and 8/1 are legitimately stunning, and both have much stronger playing as well as even bigger vocal reprises. Overrated as hell.

major outro. Very well played and solid dew from a great year for em. Jerry absolutely shreds. Great drumming especially in the mid solo.
