There will be no more songs...only Jam.

No skid on this ride. Seamless and sync'd, a (rare) flawless vocal from Jerry, and who else but Brent to take us to space.

Nassau Coliseum

Typical sloppy '80 Jed, until Jerry starts inventing scales. It's like he finds a wormhole to a parralel notational grid.

Greensboro Coliseum

How dare Jerry defile the dissociative sanctity of the Wharf with such a filthy rip

Single AUD source roughly patched and INC, but sure glad they caught Jer's solo here. Awesome show and it doesn't sound too bad considering..

The Wheel
Dec. 14, 1980
Long Beach Arena

Wowza...I'm not a huge fan of this tune, and usually groan when I see it ahead on a show...but I think it really clicked for me with how smooth they roll in and out of it here. From Prophet-onwards, a full disc worth of Slayer.

Wowza, Bobby couldn't get it up before the show and hes taking out the frustration on us all
Bird Song
May 15, 1993
Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

An all-timer, no doubt. Hope we get a big ole box set of this May '93 run because the SBD's are clean as a whistle, and there's more gold than rust in most shows

Ooof, this one's heavy. In the fading sun in dank May Vegas heat? Yessir.

It's 2024 and you better believe I'll be outside the Sphere hustling for tix, and sleeping in some bushes at the Wynn golf course for 3 months.
