Nice!!!
Barry's played a fair number of shows at TXR this year and they all were Grate, IMHO.
I think that it was the Valentines Day show (with Stanley Jordan, Molo, etc) that Sless himself started taking over the shred factor. Inclusion of the kids (and some strange song selections) took the whole show down a notch from what it could've acheived. I think that "Feeling Alright" was a highlight, as well as "Caution". I may need to give that one a listen again...

That is a killer setlist, bookmarked in in Archivist and will listen ASAP.
I don't remember the date but the only one I attended was at Meriweather with ABB.
Larry C. and Jackie G., Molo, Particle guy on keys, Sless stuck to steel and frankly was low in the mix.
I would like to hear a Sless set where the pedal steel is given the night off and he turns up that guitar.

I agree with Hall that the Bimbo's show was excellent, but while many may disagree this one is easy for me...
12/29/05 Fillmore Auditorium SF, w/ Ryan Adams, Larry Campbell, Rob Barraco, John Molo & Joan Osborne.
Many zoners claim this as the worst Phil show they ever saw.
Not me.
It was loose, funky, dirty & down, it was heavy, it was REAL.
That was the first time I'd seen Ryan, and this show is right at the top of my favorite P&F shows I ever saw.
https://archive.org/details/phil2005-12-29.flac16
Another honorable mention for a Sless show with Phil is 07/02/99 at the Warfield with David Nelson, Mookie, Kimock & Bill Kreutzmann.
That was the first time I'd ever seen Sless. I had no idea who he was, and especially early on I was pretty focused on Billy & Phil playing together again, but by the end of the show I definitely noticed Sless. It's another real good one.

Out of the shows I've seen
Out of the shows I've seen with Sless 11/7/15 & 10/29/16 especially 3-18-15 have been my favorites. I really like the 12/14-15/14 shows at TXR with Nelson, S.Law, Molo & Chimenti. https://soundcloud.com/quinfolk/sets/phil-lesh-friends-terrapin-crossroa...
The 05' shows I've heard, which are pretty few, Sless has been underutilized, sq hasn't been great on the recordings, & I'm not a huge C.Robinson fan. The 10-30-05 show I've heard with him & Herring seemed good but the recording wasn't all that good.

Sless was on pedal steel all night... and I actually did like that show, but I liked the following night more (when Ryan called in sick and Barry and Larry raged). NYE (with Ryan back) was a complete mess, though.

"I don't remember the date but the only one I attended was at Meriweather with ABB."
I was there as well Les. One set each, Phil opened. The Allman's blew Phil off the stage that night.
"shadow of the moon tour has some"
Just about my favorite non-Q Phil tour. Great time. In addition to the AC show I mentioned above, the tour opener in Reading on 11/21/05 and the Fairfax VA show on 12/2/05 well both stellar. Chris Robinson brought some great songs to that tour, and the re emergence of Big Brown was a mindblower. I remember having my whole body vibrate during the feedback-> Caution in VA, huge thumps on my chest. It was magnificent.

Vegoose late night was the
Vegoose late night was the only time in my show going where I ended up front row and was right in front of Barry for five hours. Watching him that night was just amazing and when the setlist for the third set got added to his pedal steel I was in disbelief. Thought we were at the encore section of the evening and to see that long list of songs was nuts. Also, was really weird to be that close and able to see the setlist the whole show. Not sure what others would do but at first tried not to look but then couldn't help myself. After the show I was lucky enough to get the third set setlist from security and for years had it framed but somehow I lost it.
On a different note, Joan Osborne was phenomenal with Phil that evening. What a great show!
