Summary
Always a great way to start out set 2, this week's Deadpod starts with a wonderful Scarlet ->Fire. The boys do a nice job of exploring on this one, as the Scarlet is a bit more exploratory as usual, and that is a property of this entire set. Highlights for me include the great transition between Eyes of the World and Space, Garcia really explores some new areas there. The unusual post-drums setlist puts Not Fade Away before Wharf Rat and gives us a unusual double encore to end our evening!

| 0:27.0 | Rather unlike most that you hear, I mean it's almost self-contained. Jerry does some wonderful |
| 0:35.8 | explorations in here as does all the band. They transition into a fire on the |
| 0:40.4 | mountain which is a little bit more up-tempo than some also kind of |
| 0:45.1 | spacey avant-garde is one way I've heard it described to this whole set and I think |

| 1:15.5 | Drums follows rather a little bit, perhaps a little shorter than some, but still it's quite nice. They go into then not fade away |

| 1:31.1 | Saturday night they come back for a double encore it's all over now baby blue and While it's an audience tape and it doesn't have quite the fidelity of some soundboards, I think it's still kind of fun to listen to and I hope you enjoy it. |
