  • ★★★★★ · Great Show! · smat2hews · 2014

    From my perspective this show is surprisingly good with great sound quality. Surprising because I was at this show, about 15 rows back on the floor center, and don't remember it being THIS good. Likely because I didn't have a plethora of archive.org shows to compare it to, and probably didn't know at the time that I bearing witness to one of their many peaks over the years. What I do remember was that everyone politely stayed in their seats through the entire show!

  • ★★★★★ · One hell of a performance! · bomberman · 2008

    I must say, this is one amazing show. The entire band is on, including Donna (and I won't get into all that DG bashing). The fact is, where I find that she quite often "failed to hit the note" on this night she was Dead on. (slight pun) So much so that the version of Looks Like Rain is one of the most kick a$$ versions I've ever heard. Donna and Bob are fantastic throughout.

  • ★★★★★ · Outrageous! · capn doubledose · 2005

    Cannot believe I have never listened to this... Agree with the others though jack a roe gets a nod as well. Donna... everyone is fully on... In a year where NFA is a staple this one at 16+ mins is classic into GDTR... Not to be missed. With respect to Maryland I completely agree I am sure there are others but I can only think of set II of '82 playin>crazy fingers which was a letdown and thats after a sizzling first set so its a wash.
