Embryonic, unhinged and primal! Tiger lead is positively lacerating, everyone in attendance was split into dust

Dark Star
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

A moving experience, so close to being lost forever yet saved from the abyss by Ken and judy, this magical version is so jazzy lush and transcendent, fuck yes. Glowing with a primordial state of infinite transition, constellation undulating across millenia of time and light, revealed to us in but an image, a film of existence
Not Fade Away
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Mega portion of tube-frying raw power--cleansing sermonic type 2 opener
Uncle John's Band

Capitol Theatre

closes acoustic and electric sets, each is a visceral epigram summarizing in such a simple sweep the mindset born that generations would continue to inherit.

freaky version, love it! Solo finds all the little spaces and commas that you didnt know existed within this deceptively simple gd classic.
