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.

Great under the radar version. Worth a listen or 2.

Jerry's blast off at the end and the silky smooth transition to China Doll makes this one special.

The Truckin > TOO > Drums > Space> IWTYH > TOO features some great jamming. I feel like this one is flying under the radar.

I found this version quite fun and unique. The MIDI jams in Scarlet blast you way back to that 80's sound. The Brent, Jerry, and Phil interplay during the FOTM intro is fantastic. Jerry has the scratchy 80's voice but he's engaged. There were certainly harvesting the energy of the Loma Prieta earthquake on this night.
