This show smokes like a sweet pull off a four foot graffix with a two foot extension. Set One was the first Dead boot I nabbed and I remember every note like it was written in my soul. The opening Promised Land sets the stage for an epic journey through a hot set of Spring '78 Dead. A majestic Ramble On Rose eases us into set one with Bobby slip slidin' away on his battle axe while Donna provides beautiful backing vocals to Jerry's lead.

- ★★★★★ · Great Show! · Franchi$e · 2006
Sound quality = very good. Real nice 1st set. (Stayin Alive tease - YES!) Fine versions of Cassidy, BEWomen, and a great MNS (check out Bob and Donna goofing off before the time change. really fun!) 2nd set is a smoker! This is a typical 1978 blowout. I think the lead break in Scarlet shakes with intensity, and after the last verse, the floor drops right out. They noodle for a while, real quiet, and build into a very interesting Fire, with some great peaks and valleys.
- ★★★★★ · Mind-Blowing · Zaorish · 2007
1st set, straight all the way thru into Fire is mind-blowingly perfect, not a missed note anywhere. This is a new favorite Fire, it just might be superior to 2-5-78. And it is light years beyond 5-8-77. Scarlet is great too, and sweet harmonies by Donna on all songs. I particularly like how aggressive Bobby is, he seems to be saying, "f*** rhythym guitar, we'll have 2 lkead guitars".
