2.5 stars! WHAT?! This is one of the better tighter 1985 shows! The Sugaree is unparalleled in any year! Every tune is solid and hardly a flub at all.Gloria encore was fantastic! Irvine Meadows were traditionally the first outdoor spring shows of the year as the Dead headed home after a cold indoor east coast swing. Band was always in good spirits and played solid shows. This was THE best! Again that Sugaree is amazing!
