Very smoking version that's a fair representation of the entire show. Great energy all night!

It's just played really well. The entire show is good but nothing better than an A-. Show was heavy in my rotation in youth. A+ SBD. Nice CRS opener!

Played in hyper speed and everything still sounds just exactly perfect. A great way to end a set in any era

Damn! Unhealthy JG really kicks ass sometimes! Excellent bouncy >, Jer sings along in 'laid down last night.' verse - Rider is simply out for blood!

There's just a litte cheesy chriping synth...outside of that this Bird is jumpy,agressive, and probably cracked my top 5

Agree with everything KLAUSSMITH said. Love Jerry's fanning after '...and get ready to kill'. The first set is one for the ages and everything pre-drums in set 2 is fun as hell

This might be the only FOTD that's on my list of favorites. No FOTD rocks harder than this one - energy out of solo is wild

Agreed, it doesn't get any better than this!
