Jer and Phil keep jamming beyond Bobby’s attempt to conduct transition/ makes for heady chaos.

Another tap into the energy that surges from this show, we get to see the fun thanks to a clean Vood vid. Be there now.

Great to hear Bob peg that heavy strumming like that! Should've happened more. Examples welcome...

Still puts me back in the Garden, especially when they hit that transition/ turn that corner that leads back into the lyrics.

Okay, DiPs 20 has 9/25 and this. Just voted for 9/25 by accident -- that one's good too/ deserves votes -- but I like how this one snaps and bounces, and especially how Bob splices in a few chord chops from the earlier part -- before the fare thee well now verse.

Yeah, some of those 77s have been camping in my yard for many years now; they know how to party and help with the chores.
