Overall a really solid but not exceptional live show for me. Setlist was great but the only real standout for me was Looks Like Rain. Great crowd apparently too from how much they pipe in their audio on the record.

First 2/3 is one of my favorite stretches I've heard in a Dead show. For me, the last third is comprised of some nice instrumentation and ad hoc, but not much for a listener that isn't physically there. The intro rolling into Help On the Way > Slipknot! is one of the best aura farming moments the Dead have. The annoucer rattling off the members of the band to the crowd's delight; quickly followed by the funk twang of Help on the Way is simply perfect. Great album.

One of the best late 70s Dead Shows. One of my favorite Ship of Fools and Bertas ever.

Decided to start here for RUFUS and I can say I definitely enjoyed most of this album. Reminds me of back in the days I used to listen to EDM in high school. Some forgettable songs on the record but the ones I liked, I really liked. Especially InnerBloom. That one truly felt experimental and really developed slowww. Thinking about maybe goin to their concert in August in AC. We'll see.
