    A HOT show that I think is better than the night before. The band is ON. Set 1 has great versions of Sugaree, Peggy-O, FotD, Ramble and Jack Straw. Set 2 doesn't quite live up to set 1, but it's still plenty good. Estimated and Stella are the highlights. If you take set 1 from this show and set 2 from the night before, you would have an awesome show. As it is, Great set 1, VG set 2, 9/10 overall

    I have always thought of
    I have always thought of this show as the soft landing from the night before. 1/10 was not a sellout, the eleventh had everybody from the 10th and people still kicking themselves for not going the night before. 1/10 had a handful of poles and mics dotting the floor. 1/11 had dozens. Always love a Sugaree opener. Also really enjoyed the post drums and surprise Casey Jones encore.
