Oakland Auditorium

Unless I'm very much mistaken, this is the premiere of Tiger.

There are some nice moments in the show before this, but it really takes off around here.

The bass cut at the start of this is a tragedy. Still a great version.

I know this is JGB, but it's one of the best versions and absolutely needs to be listed.

Nice version with good band interplay. I loved the jam at the end, although I thought the landing into "Estimated" was rocky. Great stand-alone!

I liked this version, but don't think it works where they have it placed in the set (although it definitely helps give this first set a character quite different from the others in this three-show run).
Let The Good Times Roll

Capital Centre

I did like the opener; it's nice to hear something new(er) in this slot!

Eh, I was indifferent. Too fast for my taste, and the solo doesn’t do anything but ornament the melody.

Huge bust out (four and a half years), and Phil works it.
