Dark Star>Drums>Dark Star 48 minutes. Minus the drums, still one minute longer than Cleveland 12/6/73
Same as 4/8, goes into Sugar Magnolia>Caution (Includes one verse of Who Do You Love) *Final Caution*
Family Dog 8/28/69 is longer, but the Heartbeats lineup does not include Weir & Howard Wales subs for Pigpen.
Morning Dew opens Set 2 & is the first of the slower paced, more measured vocal versions. Not played since 8/6/71, last of the shorter, faster ones.

They played like cosmic space goats that whole tour.
The DS from the Palace in Waterbury 9-24-72 is one face melt mind fuck itself.

Yes.
For my money, 5/11 Rotterdam is the best show of the tour.

The DS on 4/8 is better and I'd probably give the best show of tour to one of the Lyceum shows these days but Rotterdam is right up there

Rotterdam is my favorite not
Rotterdam is my favorite not only because of the Dark Star - although that’s a major factor - but also for the Dew, Caution, the PITB opener, a very strong Two Souls, and more.
