Taper Notes:

View Notes- dc offset removed
- I love it when Jerry reminds me how many teeth are in a jaw bone.  But when those licks confirmed Johnny B. Goode,  It was all over for me.  
- Crank up that ole victrola, were in Hartford tonight.
- Jerry's got a case of end of tour voice, mid tour. Or was it laryngitis??
- Start to finish Brent is a beast.
- pre drums sequence is a one of a kind.
- ToG has an MC Weir intro. Yes Bob, the album, otherwise known as In The Dark :)
- Dear Mister Fantasy…  While it was heavy in the rotation during this time period, this pass left me utterly speechless.  I got to watch Brent & his spinning Leslie crank this one out from over his right shoulder, about 20 feet behind him.
