Another quick update live from Red Rocks. Went to the my second Dead show and this one was dog wild. Warren opened and that alone was worth the price of admission. He did Falling Down and it was excellent. Did Going Down Slow, closed with One and Soulshine.
I hate to say I was a little disappointed after the first show but the Dead could not seem to sync up. Last night they were just incredible. MONUMENTAL JAMMING. Warren seems to be gravitating towards center stage. My mind is foggy but they did Night of a Thousand Stars, All Along the Watchtower (wow), After Midnight, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds (my favorite), Fire On The Mountain (wow), Going down the Road Feeling Bad (encore). I think both shows were around 3 hours.
I think last night was Jimmy Herring's night. The band was on but JH really smoked the rocks. There was a lot of interplay between Bob and Warren but Jimmy just stayed right and tore it up all night.
