Awesome near 7 minute Playin that starts to go out there as it would much more in a few months. Really interesting period for the band imo

Probably best of the tour....They let it all out after the incredible segue that makes up the majority of the set

Bobby's comments about vetoing Billy's "no" vote on this is pretty funny. Especially after reading in Deal about his favorite songs to play...

Strand Lyceum

Yes ^ that's what been missing from most of the other Europe 72 versions. Stellar one here; between this, the PITB, and He's Gone, tonight's versions show what's to come in the future...
