I
Hey Pocky Way-3rd of 25 performances and solidy Brent vocals w/nice change of an opener.

Hillarious Bobby banter before Me & My Uncle
"We had some Communist sabatoge on our monitors....Some of Brent's Communist friends sabatoged my speaker...Our all American friend Steve (Parish) will fix it and once again justice will previal...We should all have take a hand for truth, justice and the American way"
Finicula Finicula played
with Bobby ending "So Brent's Communist little buddies have had their fun, we can get on with the show"

Queen Jane-7th of 129 times played.

Music-Highly spirited playing

II
China>Rider>Estimated Eyes-Harmonies spot on for Rider and Estimated w/Brent's raspy voice working well. Wonderful powerful combo soon to be retired.

E: Baby Blue-Jery gives his all vocally.

Great show, not as good as 9/18 but what a run on 7th Ave!!!

Actually it was Beer Barrel Polka before Me & My Uncle. But none the less, great show all around. 1st night of the run, and the Garden was hoping. Hey Pocky Way opener really got it going!!

Just enjoyed this show today.

Fantastic and a lot of fun. Everything is high energy and Jerry is in fine voice.

Something special about this being their official return to the Big Apple after Jerry's coma.

Looking forward to diving into the rest of this run and the Spectrum shows that follow
