Amen to that, and one of the best shows I've ever seen--by any band--as well. The link you posted is busted though; here's a good one:

That whole weekend was an example of infinite jest. I missed the Thursday show, but made it for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. My crew was parked in one of the corners of the balcony for this run, and there was a sticker on the wall that said "Decorum" that was the source of much amusement all weekend.
On Friday, i did psychedelics for the first time after a hiatus of about 10 years, and by Sunday night, I was ready for just about anything. I don't know, maybe it was the doses, or the shrooms, or the clouds of DMT smoke our neighbors were exhaling regularly, but this for me was a show of shows.
The band really delivered the goods all weekend, and the tapes certainly bore that out, but Sunday night was something else indeed. If fact, I remember babbling to my buddy Gary after it was all said and done that night that I no longer regretted not seeing the GD in the 60s and early 70s. It was just that kind of night, and yeah, it's crazy that it was 20 years ago now.

the 'Beautiful Jam' is one of my all-time favorite things the GD ever performed. Absolutely magical.
the 'MLB Jam' section from Boston '73 is another.
