Coming out of MAMU, builds to a nice pace with that classic "rainbow full of sound" feeling

Coming out of space, into Stella, classic pairing going into and out of The Other One. They take their sweet time getting there, this is a spacey one

Comes out of a weird but not too weird space, going into the last death don't have no mercy. Lots of midi, to be expected, but still pretty decent.

Basically an instrumental, as many have noticed, the vocals are shot for a good portion of the first set

Solid. Doesn't blast you to the moon necessarily, but a fine display of some summertime jammin' at one of the shows of the year

Holy fuckity, Batman. Boys are not kidding around here. The description on the original post is about as accurate as I could ever hope to describe this behemoth. Jaw dropping

Ibrook, love that you said that without even hearing the absolute shred fest that Jerry puts on. They really move as one at points it's unbelievable that it was on the fly

One of the best hours of dead music that they ever played. Flat out fucking awesome

Definitely have to second the above comment^^. The last few minutes are unbelievable. Jerry quite literally turns it up a notch, it's what we come here for. Both this show and the next day are massively underrated
