Have not yet been able to crack into '90 Dead much, tho I've heard it's different than other latter years, and this helps that case...Grate!

Knowing how epic the following date is, Im surprised I wasn't aware of this...nice long 6' intro and transition into Fire w/o words

Fiercely Intense (gotta listen to the AUD). Perfectly Spacey

Thanks for counting, too...I had no idea! 14 is my favorite number, so I don't need to post any more Jack Straws. Let's see, what song can I monopolize next?

Wow this must be a great version if one can get possessive over it. You can have this slice, man; I never said it was mine anyway. Appreciate the mediation, Sir Crow. To me, this is a reference site, and I see no reason to assume a version I like will be recognized, so I post them. In digression, my mom thinks my judgement is extremely credible, and Jesus loves me too!

A hot time for the band. Bob in charge, Brent fully incorporated and comfortable, Jerry charged up, and the backbone of Phil, Billy, and Mickey is too groovy
