Best Touch of Grey

Ever hear the 3/27/87 Touch?
I was at the show in Hartford. For whatever reason the band and crowd really clicked on that one. I was on the floor about 10 rows back and the roar was magnificent.

Many and Often
On June 8th, 2007 johnnyg said:
There are so many
and they change so often
I am always finding a version of "x" song I love more than another.
And there is the "live vs version"
However
Shakedown - 3.30.87
Ripple - 9.3.88
come immedately to mind.
Rats, gotta get back to the mine............
Cheers!

Favorite Blow Away (2
On June 8th, 2007 sw fla chip said:
Favorite Blow Away (2 actually): Riverfront Coliseum 4/89 - dude got caught up in the moment during the Brent rap and got on stage, had to be escorted off. 10/26/89 - right after Estimated and right before Dark Star, weird placement and an over the top version
Favorite Estimated (2 again): the aforementioned 10/26/89 - some spacey jamming before they open set 2 with it. 9/2/80 - a spiraling solo from Jer that I wish would never end.
Favorite Bertha: 12/31/87 - the band comes out firing, great solo
"Got a few wrinkles but that's OK, hang out in the breeze and they'll blow away"
not sure it's technically the best version ever...

but Brent singing "I Will Take You Home" to his little girl at the Shoreline Father's Day show was a moment I don't think anybody there is likely to forget.
Dang, I miss Brent too.
