3/27/85 nassau coliseum: 1st MISSISSIPPI HALF-STEP since 10/82 opens, zooted no-swing tempo, but big fun. lesh returns to outro vocals (sounding great tbh) which seems to kick garcia’s own singing over the top. cutting off garcia, lesh debuts JUST LIKE TOM THUMB’S BLUES to big cheers, his 1st totally solo lead vocal in years, charming & biting with his own lyric tweaks. 1st verse is bass-led & drumless; apparently hart stands/applauds. 1st TONS OF STEEL since new year’s, pretty tight. [2/6]
