  • ★★★★★ · This aud show rocks! · RFKROX · 2008

    Download the aud from this concert now! Blows the SBD away! Why? Because Jerry Moore was standing directly behind the soundboard when he taped this awesome show! Is he the S***, or what????? I downloaded the soundboard, but after listening to Bertha and Good Lovin' (sounded a little muddled), I downloaded the aud songs, which blew me away! Every time the Dead start a show with Bertha > Good Lovin’ > BEW > Cassidy, you know it’s a smokin’ show!

  • ★★★★★ · Was there! · Bear in 29206 · 2005

    This was probably the best show I ever saw. Yes, it was a "Gym" but with the bleachers pulled out from the rear, it gave a big open seatless dance floor with heights to retreat to when you wanted. Damn, the music was good! The energy between the band and the crowd was alive and the tempo all night was "up". Also, this was (according to DeadBase) the first time ever they played "Eyes" into "Estimated Prophet" instead of the other way around makes it even more special.

  • ★★★★★ · Homecoming · gonzoc · 2004

    Colgate had a hell of a homecoming this year. Call me a contrarian, but this show, Englishtown, and Broome County are my favorites of 77. I just like Jerry's harder sound, and the jamming is insane. I've had the (very good) audience of this for 20 years, but the music loses absolutely nothing of the energy or intensity in the SBD version, and it does do away with the occasional crowd utterance (like the head who classically recognizes his buddy "Krauser" or "Towser" on the AUD at the beginning…
