He's Gone

Five Seasons Center

Solid and energetic. Wraps up a lively pre-drums part of 2nd set. Interesting jam at the end. Phil sounds like he wants to go Other One, never does.

Fast. Fast. Fast. Cokey version seems like it's playing in fast forward. '84 is so unique and magical/dreamy sometimes.

Not a big fan of this song usually, but this one's hot. On the 4th of july, short, sweet, everybody's into it. Comin' out of The Wheel and into UJB.

Nice one, rising out of a cool Playin' and getting it's own groove on. Featured on Go to Nassau.

Kinda love the placement of this song for some reason. It's like it shouldn't go in the middle of that jammy goodness, but it does, and it works. Almost surreal.

'72 Rose in Europe, can't go wrong. Love the way Keith tickles the ivories, and with Pig's organ swirling. Yum.

One of my new favorite Dews.
