Part of the reason I love the LT 47 graves is they just gave the whole solo to Bela. Wish they’d done that in 98 too.

Maple Leaf Gardens Toronto '98 was always a great one, if my memory serves me correct! As an 18 year old, I listened that to 100 times.

But that version is still my 2nd favorite LIOG (LT47 is my #1)

Bela

Dont get me wrong LT47 is top notch, but i feel like ones from 2002 on were incredible too. They were almost on another level with roi playing at the crescendo of the jam. Thats the one thing i think is missing from LT47.

Yeah Bela is so absurdly good that the version is still elevated

I recently watched the full stream of 9/8/02 that they put out Labor Day weekend and I was digging the shit out of that LIOG

[somf4eva]

Need to hype 6/13 as my favorite 97 LIOG. It was the first one I heard so I am partial.

Which one?

Wow yeah that one goes some places

[batleon]

"Cool, a 1999 SBD! And it's a Gorge show, this has to be good!"

*hears LIOG solo*

"Oh God, no, make it stop, make it stop!"

The one from Germany (Italy?) is really bad as well. I’ve never played violin before in my life and I think I could have probably sounded better than boyd

LOL, same goes for Red Rocks 1997.

Is that the same show as his abysmal last stop performance? Some euro festival performance?

[celluloid hero]

6.21.98, right?

The June ‘97 Bela solos were incredible. One of the 1st tapes I ever got was 6.6.97 and nostalgia plus the sheer force of those Bela performances make it one of my favorite shows ever.

Would love to get a release of it but Dave yells at the crowd a few times and I suspect that might prevent a release.

Yells about what?

[drh424s]

His graves solo in germany from that 98 show is one of my favorites ever yet every other song from that day might be his worst ever

Gotcha.

Yeah, he generally mentions some guys pushing and jumping up front, apparently there was a girl that needed some help after getting knocked in the head.

It's fun Dave speak, worth checking out if you haven't heard it before IMO, and I'm sure it could be easily edited out of a release. Even of all the great '97 shows, that one has always stood out to me.
