- ★★★★★ · This show is a lot better than lackluster, folks! · RFKROX · 2008
I disagree with JamminJerome that this was a pretty lackluster show until "Let It Grow"! Me And My Uncle and Big River smoke, as usual! Even Ramble On Rose is good. And what can you say about Deal -> Scarlet -> Fire -> Let It Grow? Doesn't get much better than that! The 2nd set of this show can rival the best of them. Let It Grow just may be a top-10. Truckin' into Wharf Rat is absolutely ridiculous! JBG and Brokedown Palace are two of the better versions I’ve heard.

- ★★★★★ · Short and sentimental · skwimite · 2005
I totally agree it was short and to the point, and a very good thing. From the 1st tape I ever had of this show, Truckin' had been replaced with and audience version, but it's pretty decent, if not a little distracting. Tensions over the Iran hostage situation were boiling over, and thought this could be the last opportunity to see the band. Seems melodramatic now, but hey! They did not dissappoint. I had finally taken my wife to a hot show, and she "got" it.
- ★★★★★ · Very sharp indeed... · USBlues1977 · 2006
Very sharp on the ligthing->supplication, really takes you away...interesting jams on the scarlet->fire, brent makes me feel like i'm on water during the fire and jerry's play abides just the same. Very unusaul for the time of the show....right in the middle of a run, this show stands out!!! It kicks a**...... everything is a treat, everybody is on.... more or less
