Another one from Vegas. They were in top form. This whole run may have been the best of 92. On this particular day the weather was crazy in the desert. Wind, thunder & lightning with no rain, swirling freaky clouds, you name it ... They also played some rarities for the times like smokestack, high time, cumberland and even a spanish jam. That Jack Straw opener brings out the best!!
