Not a bad show. Solid throughout with the only exception that Jerry's voice is playing up a bit. A nice Wave To The Wind - the first time I have heard Jerry being able to apprehend all the chord changes in this song. Playing In The Band almost disintegrates, sounding like they are going to go into Drums before UJB. Weir even briefly starts playing the chords for Uncle John's Band AFTER Drums - maybe he forgot they already played it :-).

I was at this show and as others noticed, it was low energy. Phil contributed a moving Broken Arrow which was nice. Jerry spent alot of time low on the frets. But you have to remember shows became less about a complete all night rave up and 1 or 2 songs. Days between is beautiful in any show. So many roads. The traditional material starts to not have that deep feeling. The band and jerry is tired. That night though the sky over the penisula was crystal clear with a bright moon over the bay.
