    S***, even the Funiculi Funicula tuning is great, being video recorded for posterity. Another tuning, Tico Tico, follows before they tear into Jack Straw. Jerry bungles the lyrics at the start, but everything else is solid, with a gainy Jerry taking charge instrumentally and crushes the jam. On a dime trans into Half-Step keeps things flowing down the rio. Esau skates into the setlist to my delight, nearing the end of his career selling real estate this one is funky as they get.

    How lucky to watch a video two days in a row. Yesterday I saw 7-23-90 and today is a more celebratory affair. Wow! The Jack opener here rips the roof off! Bill & Mickey? You can tell Bobby wants to jump in but can't even control it, and lets it come back around again. Damn fine !! Right away you can see where this night is going. I'm only at the end of the second set but truly epic. What a great night, and video! Solid 4* an 5 may be a stretch, but rounding up. Dylan & The Dead?

    Magical show all around late afternoon into night. OB, Mac, Davina, Timbro.♥️ All Along the Watchtower Dylan Dead still echos in my head so clear, my last live song from the rim of the Colessium under the Moon child crescent moon. Feels like yesterday. Both my 1st and last Dead shows had Jerry pedal steel. Thanks for the great recording! *** few hours later, just heard, RIP Bob Weir 😢 "Let there be songs to fill the air" 🎶🎶🎶🎶♥️
