Oh my , oh my, This is such a hot show. I could go song by song through this show but all I want to convey is if you are really into the Dead for the music this night has to be a five. If this night is not a five than nothing should be a five. I have so much more ground to cover in this archive (God willing) but I am telling you right now I will put this show against any of the bigger name SF or NY shows of the period.

- ★★★★★ · Amazing show. Best Lovelight ever? · orangejulius · 2008
This show is just fantastic and doesn't get the praise that it deserves. It beats the pants off most of the shows from earlier in the year. I just listened to all 3 shows at the Ark from April and I think this show is better overall. Some highlights not previously mentioned: 1. Black Peter. Nice electric version with good background accompaniment (bass, percussion, & organ). Nice to compare with the gorgeous acoustic versions that would pop up a couple months later. 2.

YES! finally i found this show! WOO HOO! i am a young deadhead or dead head or guy who listens to the dead... however you put it... not a seasoned veteran. either way.... this was seriously one of my first shows. i dont know where i got it, but i figured i might as well start early. enough about me... this show rocks... hard. jerry's voice isnt as high and sweet as someone mentioned he may have been sick... the rain and snow isnt as fast as earlier in the year. WHO CARES! THIS SHOW ROCKS!
