Very fast. More jammed out than most versions.

If you can handle the clap-along, it's worth the listen.

Yeah, it's the best out there. If you have to find faults, it is kinda rough sounding and Jerry has that whiny singing voice. Still, it's the best.

Brent explodes during the first instrumental break, then Jerry takes the lead. After some solid vocals, Jerry jams it out tight. Not just a throwaway version.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Nice instrumental break jamming from Jerry and Vice. Great vocals by Bob and some nice harmonies. More 1991 sweetness.

Berkeley Community Theater

Yeah, he flubs things a couple of times, but overall the vocals are good.
Dire Wolf

Freeborn Hall, University of California

Short but sweet instrumental break for Jerry.
