Subject: Very Peculiar Show
All in all the show had very fantastic moments once you can get past some of the equipment issues Jerry had. It actually sounded better live!!! The Estimated eyes is excellent, but I wish the high energy stayed. It appeared they may have run out of gas post drumz..

Jerry just melted my face off again. 5 stars for the the "Jerrybumps" I just had while listening to "Eyes"! C'mon, this show needs to filter upwards.

granted jerry's playing may not be as perfect, or as crisp as other performances... but he's playing some real mean guitar... he's literally beating the piss out of the strings, and screaming his lungs out.... 5 starts just for energy from start to finish

Subject: Jerry seems uncomfortable
Was anybody reading this at this show? If so, was Jerry using the Travis Bean? It sounds like that in Set 1. Unfortunately, though the band is energetic, Jerry sounds quite uncomfortable at times and is hitting some sour notes. Seems like he was having intonation problems. Being a profesional guitarist, and having once owned a Travis Bean myself, I recall having a lot of intonation problems with that guitar. Sounds like Jerry was in a similar dilemna.

Y'know---to whomever edits these comments before they get posted, do me a favor, and just dump the whole sordid tale that I described a few minutes ago. Listening more closely to this show, I realize how the days between and the recreational ingestion at the show itself have combined to completely distort in my mind what ACTUALLY happened. My intitial opinion is unwavered, though: this is an EXCELLENT recording. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'M going to shut up.

Subject: Not your average 1978 show
This show beats the June 4 show, no question. Jerry's guitar playing is perfect and fiery, and it's good night for vocals. But he's also doing things different also seems to be having flash-backs to earlier vocal and guitar styles.

This first set is not to be missed. There's fierce Big River with an interesting introduction. In Candyman Jerry's vocal has shades of the late 60's with the way he uses vibrato. The band is hot on Passenger, but Jerry does it differently with slide all over the place and fast soloing, again similar to years gone by. Peggy O is not the usual sweet ballad, but has some of the anger expressed by Peggy's suitor, William; the guitar soloing is fabulous. Samson is a great group effort, with everybody playing off of each other, Bob all hot and bothered, and a nice job by Bill and Mickey.

Absolutely one of the best days of my life. My buddy Butch and I stopped by on a hitch-hiking trip down the Coast.

A big show on a sunny summer day -- Eddie Money, the Outlaws, Santana, the Grateful Dead. we chilled in the back of the stadium through Money and most of the Outlaws. Figuring to work our way up to the front when they'd likely conclude their set with the three-guitar-attack "green Grass and High Tides" turned out just perfectly. Saw Santana and the Dead from the very front.

Kesey and his Thunder Machine helped out during SPACE, which ended with a crash and surge of sound that literally brought the crowd to its knees....AND THEN IT GOT EVEN LOUDER. Rumor has it that parts of Eugene and Springfield were browned out during NFA-GDTRFB-'Round and 'Round.

Those were the days. Thanks for putting this here.

This is an interesting show. Jerry plays like some ADHD guy who has decided to drink a bottle of Tequila before hitting the stage. He's kind of erratic, the vocals are downright fiesty in spots, and the guitar sound is of the ripping variety. He also seems to be the camper who keeps having equipment difficulties--probably because he is abusing his guitar so violently. Jerry is over there bein' ornery all show and needs a hall monitor to keep him with the rest of the campers. Bob is full of goofy comments. Yet, the music and sound are great.
