Comments:

Set I:
Promised Land-hi intensity
Big River-exquisite playing by Brent
LLR-Excellent finish w/Jerry Bobby
Set II:
Franklin's-Brent starts off song with low chord and holds it for ominous sound
Estimated-very short
Terrapin-slow glide into Drums midway
NFA-starts at chorus, less than 2 min
Morning Dew-Brent has church style organ at start and finish. Mild intensity but soulful singing by Jerry
Around-Never heard Bobby say "ya'll" more in one song.
E: Brokedown, excellent harmonies by the boys.

the soundboard of this show on the archive is really really good. crystal clear and a great setlist too.

ogilvie, yeah great music but probably not DP'able or Road Trips'able because, if this SBD I am listening to is the same as the 2-track mix the Dead have in their vault, there are perhaps too many issues with the PA mix that night... Brent's keys high in the mix, Bobby missing at times, rather indistinct bass for most of it. Totally brilliant to listen to this show even with this mix - the Brent imbalance in fact is fascinating... Jerry's playing over these thick electric piano chords! But - for commercial purposes - beyond the wizardry of Jeffrey Norman maybe.

Bobby during LLR: “Always looks like rain around here”
-Just Exactly Perfect Band (06/03/2018)


I was at this show and my first one. No idea what was going on to begin with. I had a spare ticket for my gf but she didn't show ;^( . Great show though and tricky to get back home as I don't live in London. Enjoyed the high energy.
