Phil and Bill sound like a runaway box car in an Appalachian mine! Heady interplay during the solos.

Cool chording from Bobby and a very restless Phil during the verses, then Billy and Keith fire off the jack hammer at the end of Jerry's lyrical solo.

This one is pretty unique for a song that didn't change much night to night...

Excellent version highlighted by a very jittery Billy with lots of ghost notes on the snare! Slightly botched ending, but otherwise great...

Billy really steals the show on this one...tosses in a variety of grooves, all to great success.

Quite a heavy transition into The Eleven.

I quite like Pig's vocals on this! I don't expect him to sound like McCartney...

Less than half the length of the other three on this run, but still great!

They really accelerate out of the Willam Tell bridge on this one!

Jerry's vocal delivery is really superb on this one.
