I am always on the search for top notch Cassidys' and this one really checks all the right boxes. The mid song jam is en fuego

Tight and focused, only 8 minutes but for 8 minutes it covers a lot of ground.

This needs more love. Outstanding version! Brent adds some really cool effects. The hunter matrix sounds really good.

Is this version truly only 4 minutes long or does it start at the slight Dark Star tease 10:20 minutes into Truckin'? It's all semantics but either way the Truckin' > Spanish Jam > Dark Star > Sing Me Back Home is over 40 minutes of great music!

grendel nailed this one. Swirling, dreamy, and meditative. A nice reflective ending to a spectacular show.

Expertly placed after telling the crowd to take a step back. A very sweet and delicate version. Nice dynamics.
