Solid, strident version. Bobby and Phil take on the rowdies with a cool rap after, too. Great first set all around.

Punk rock version, responding to an aggressive Detroit crowd. "Relax man, we don't respond to that shit" sez Jerry.

Jumped up, pushing against the pulse. Seems like the rowdy crowd inspired our boys here. Gritty, almost aggressive vibe.

Strong pulse and Jerry giving it his all, vocally and instrumentally. Why doesn't this show have more love? Everything in the set is just slaying it.

Hard driver kicking off the show with Billy firing on all 8 cylinders. Mixer laureate C. Miller gives us a gem here, good copy after 1:10 of FM warble

Short but oh-so fine, after the great jam before. Check out how Pigpen sounds he's having a spiritual epiphany on this one.

Going to have to upvote this one. Not only are the Darkness and Stephen jams just hella delicious, but they come out of a superfine AWBYG-outro that just kills me. You can hear how good they felt by the NFA chaos that comes straight after.

Long, exploratory rap and great vibe. This show needs some attention, bigtime.

Deserves a clean-up, bigtime. This, and the Dew are fully epic. It isn't just the energy, which is buried there under the AUD flaws, but the communication between them as they move seamlessly across different landscapes. They're tight and balsy, kicking this one off in a way that deserves a lot more love.

Cgarces: will try to find this, but presently not on the archive and I don't have the DP version. Looking forward to it. Thanks for the tip.
