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.

He's Gone

Seattle Center Coliseum

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

The Scope

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.

Cryptical Envelopment

The segue out of He's Gone into Cryptical is cool. Jerry is disinterested in getting the lyrics correct though.

FOTM really has some stellar shredding by Jerry. Love this!
China Doll

Jerry's voice is strained but the playing is exceptional!

This tasty grilled cheese and tomato sandwich envelops you with melty cheese that drips perfectly into China Doll and even more perfectly back into PITB. Gives you some nice thick slices of tomato during drums > space and then finally a buttery and toasty segue back to PITB, ending it properly.

This is really cool! Worth a listen. Unique version.
