Sounds like it could have been a top 40 CW chart topper. Something clean and pure about it - maybe one drummer helps on this tune.

Crystal clear sound and tight show opener in this hot hot pre-Europe run. The vocals are on and the transition rocks.

Super-strengthed version with a solid, driving pulse. They took their vitamins this day: The whole show's has that bursting-at-seams energy.

Insane explosive blowout for the set-closer. Caps an excellent first set with extraordinary energy.

Not Fade Away

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.
