The Other One

Kiel Auditorium

A massive, heavy, rocketship of a performance: Explosive liftoff, mining expedition to deep space, smoking craters, then a long sweet fast ride home.

A beautifully rendered rare treat with a nice emotional arc and sweet harmonies.

Hot building and building jam. One of those shows where just every song rocks. Nothing wrong here...

Great solos, tight ensemble playing kicking of the 2nd set from a great show. Energetic and blazing.

Tight and right. The band is charged up and having fun together. Great energy.

Dark Star

Never hits that level of wicked psychotic meltdown like some of the massive stars, but has some of the sweetest most melodic spontaneous composition they ever did. Oh and the glorious jam transitioning into Sugar Mag followed by a furiously heavy Caution make this every bit worth the praise.

Trouble groking this song? Check this one out and get it once and for all.
Playin' In The Band

This one is a nice long ride. They take their time, but get you there alright. Understated, but brilliant and coherent - up there with the best of them.

Great version with cool, almost punk rock energy to it. Set lists.net and the box set have this going into 'Next time You See Me', not 'Sitting on top of the world'. What gives?
It Must Have Been The Roses

Winterland Arena

Sounds great up-tempo. To my ears it's better as a country crooner than as a slow ballad.
