- | _Bertha_was | + | _Bertha_ was another highlight, with Mayer spurring the jams on higher and higher until we arrived at the awkward left turn transition into _Good Lovin' |
Set Two fulfilled the promise of the show opener, talking us all back into the cosmos, and as long as you're willing to overlook the awkward transitions and full stops, I'd argue that it was a darn good set. Solid song selection, a few surprises here and there (Mickey playing piano??), and lots of smiling energy: works for me! | Set Two fulfilled the promise of the show opener, talking us all back into the cosmos, and as long as you're willing to overlook the awkward transitions and full stops, I'd argue that it was a darn good set.

_Casey Jones_ started out slow, like a heavily loaded steam train pulling out of the station, and as the boys kept stoking the engine, she gradually built up a nice head of steam. Midway through I figured they were just about done accelerating the pace, but instead, they piled on jam after jam, like so many shovels of coal, and the mighty engine of the Dead responded with a roar, flying down the tracks with the wheels spinning and the whistle screaming. Watch your speed? Not these hooligans, they were looking to gain escape velocity! | _Casey Jones_ started out slow, like a heavily loaded steam train pulling out of the station, and as the boys kept stoking the engine, she gradually built up a nice head of steam.

- | <(wip)> | + | It was interesting to get _the Weight_ for an encore: the boys did a good job! I was surprised to hear a gravel-voiced Jeff Chimenti take lead on the Crazy Chester verse -- and even more surprising to hear Bobby sing falsetto on the following final verse. What kooks! |
