Wow! What a second set!
-

tremendous B-EW, very upbeat, Jerry's solos are blistering, raucus Music closes a crisp and tasty set 1

Once again I owe a great deal of gratitude to the infamous GA-DeadHead. Without question is this the greatest Playing In the Band which meshes nicely right into The Wheel ever so gently coming back into Playing In the Band. This masterpiece can be heard on Dick's Picks 18. The Estimated Prophet>Eyes Of the World is right up there with the best of them. Quite possibly could be my very favorite Estimated>Eyes of all time. Great stuff!!!

BE Woman-Has the vitality of pre-75, with the new groove of the bands 3rd era.

this show is sick! jerrys solos in estimated prophet are just awe inspiring. i dont know what it is but every time these guys played at the dane county coliseum they really ripped it. the 73 shows they played there really ripped especially 2/15/73 (awesome dark star with a phil "quad bass" solo. listen to it to understand if you dont know what i mean)
-chris (12/03/2008)

listening to this show you could easily mistake it for a 73 set if you didnt know the date before listening. these guys were on fire. deff one of the top 5 shows of 78 imo. listen to this

i just got dicks picks 18 and im trying to put together the whole second set. does anyone have "ship of fools" and "good lovin" they would be able to send me? via email would work since its only two tracks. i have all the other 2nd set songs from my DP 18 so these are the only two i need. thanks peace

whats with the dead always bustin out in Madison Wisconsin? they choke on the biggest stages and play like gods in the middle of nowhere lol. I guess thats why we love the dead. at any givin time they coulda busted out somethin that would blow your mind. wish i coulda been there. this show is ridiculous.

Wharf Rat-...not on setlist but sure is mighty good....listening to on gdradio.net
-Perrinswolf (04/17/2013)

This show is crazy! I lose sense of time whenever I hear the Estimated-Johnny set!
-Anonymous (06/28/2013)

one of the previous comments is accurate: Playin' is 73-style in its spaced out intensity. Jerry is on fire for the whole 2nd set. Great show with less 77 polish and more 78 ragged energy.
-Just Exactly Perfect Band (04/25/2016)

1978 is my sleeper year, at least these early months. of course we love '77 but 1978 has ragged energy as the comment above points out. I like that description

This show will fuck you strait in the ass if you don't watch...so be careful cuz it's a strait bastard...amazing and rolling and drippy Grateful Dead...this is prime 78 GD...

"whats with the dead always bustin out in Madison Wisconsin? they choke on the biggest stages and play like gods in the middle of nowhere lol."

Madison has been a hub of counterculture and activism for decades.

What Phil said. And the cheese curds are great!

This post is a much delayed echo of the very first comment about this show (by 'jason') which is at least 18 years old (The posts on this site weren't added until around 2007). This Eyes is incredible and the intro... Wow! A full 4 minutes 53 seconds before Jerry belts out "Right outside this lazy summer home" Estimated ain't none too shabby either, can't think of a better Estimated > Eyes off the top of my head.

Btw I hope 'jason' is still around and listening. I know I am until the day I drop dead. I'm 56 now and started listening when I was 16. That's 40 years on the bus vs 16 years waiting for the bus.
