This review is a textbook example of how out of whack fans expectations have become for this band. If they jam too much, people criticize the song selection. If they break out tons of bust-outs, they are criticized for not enough 20 minute-plus jams. Their may have been some lackluster "moments" on this tour, but it was by no means a legendary failure. As they do with most tours, they picked up steam as they went along, and by Mansfield/Hartford they were playing great. The west coast and Dick's shows were loaded with bust-outs, superb experimentation, and inspired playing. We should be so lucky that they continue to perform as well overall as they did this summer.
