Comments:

Even with Jerry almost into his coma, this show had lots of vitality and creativity with the setlist. Love the western theme of the first set, then back to the big heavies for the 2nd.

I
First set is a masterpiece of precision. Double starter w/ALABAM and PROMISED. Nothing touched the hear with more fondness than a Good ROSES. Great solos on EL PASO. Boys bookend the sprited set with another double closer MUSIC>MIGHT AS WELL.

II
CHINA>RIDER>PLAYIN'>TERRAPIN-2nd of 11 times this bad boy played. Boys still coming up with new brews 20 years in. Last but not least the 2nd of only 2 WHEEL>TRUCKIN>WHARF RAT>SUGAR MAGNOLIA.

& who said 85 was a stale year folks?

Whoever said 1985 was a stale year needs to get their hearing checked.

Big Railroad Blues
The Music Never Stopped
Might As Well

Wow what a show.

I strapped on the headphones,ate 13 hits of white blotter and was having a great time until Drums/Space when I farted and inadvertently shit my pants really bad.

And I mean REALLY bad. Found corn in my fucking SOCKS man. Stained the god damn couch too. My ol' lady was super pissed.

FACK!

I sent Jerry a bill for the upholstery cleaning but he hasn't got back to me yet. I'm not going to hold my breath.

Thanks Jerry; it was fun until it cooled off :-D
