Muscular and punchy. Jer sings it right on: kicked my eye and kicked my dog, midnight train. Energy reigns.

Contains everything and could stand alone as an epic GDTRFB, even as part of its trad NFA sammy. Great speed work from everyone, builds and builds.

"Kicked my eye and he blacked my dog". Like others this night, the vibe is aggressive and rowdy, knifey jagged soloing, this one's a killer.

Introduced as"kind of a death and destruction song", which tells you all you need to know.

Outrageous, hot, and pumped up. Should have been of this list a long time ago.

I disregarded this show for too many years, and I'm not sure why now, 'cause its got the goods on every number. This Dew owns its votes. Listen and love.

It sounds like Keith has twenty fingers. Killer piano work on this uptempo jumper.

Everything about this set just kicks ass. FreedomHaul said it well.

Hadn't listened to this show on the box set yet, and sweet jeezus this PiTB got a big upgrade. Beg, borrow, or rip the box version and be amazed. Any show that kicks of with this kind of monster is going to be very good indeed. The good just gets better.

The SSDD is over-the top. Total balls-to-the-wall jam.
