2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Indeed there was nothing left after this - Space > DEW end of SET! ha we were like WTF?! but it made sense it's MONSTER and there wasn't anything more to say... Box was HUGE - I was there and glad for the sweet memory. If you like this style Dew check out 4/14/84... another one that in my mind is UNREAL.+1

agreed a little fast but sometimes this tune can be such a mess - one that I like alot heard a few times but not sure they've ever really nailed it. I have to check the top 5 on here and maybe I can find one.
