Everyone takes turns taking punches in the end, extremely well played!

Easily the best one I have ever heard, the outro is long and lazy and dominated by Jerry instead of Bobby on slide, check it out!

This is very tight and balanced, it almost sounds rehearsed...

Very weird, intense version, sounds to be a a theme of a wild west action comic book cartoon?

Killer 3 minute jam closes this one out. Just exactly things.

The 3 night run in Chicago 1/30-2/1 is some of the best GD of all time. This is what winter in the midwest sounds like.

IMO a top 5 for sure. Full of sound and chaos.

This is not a stand alone version a roaring Stella legit segues into this pleasing FT. Really high grade shit! Love Bobby's complimentary playing along with the very mean and proud tone omitting out of JG's guitar. God damn what a climatic middle and ending jam. 10/10 shit right here. Shocked i'm new to this craziness.
