Part of a rare double encore, this version has great energy and bounce. The Brokedown to follow is nice as well. Check out the Oade Brothers AUD.

Really cool pre-drums jam in this version. Almost sounds like they are about to go into I Know You Rider.

It's a fine version and all but the cool little Jerry noodle just before Drums is the real reason to seek this version out.

Really nice groove out of drums. Chill version but in a good way.

Triumphant and energetic. Strong vocals from Brent.

This version is good not great. It has that thing where Jerry really muffs the vocals so he kills it during the guitar solo. Jimmy's during the 80's seemed to have that occur somewhat frequently.

This version rages hard! Jerry's fingers could still fly in '85.

This is really good! Nice flow to the jam.

This version actually has a lot going on. The mid jam is wonderful and the pre drums jam is solid.

Let's be honest here. This version sucks.
