This might be the best Throwin' Stones I saw live. This is def one of my fav shows to have attended. Love the way a Rat Dog version is 11 on this list. This song was, is and always will be most prescient. Go Bobby!!

Great take. Agreed. Estimated is heady zeitgeist. It's a little Casey Jones and a little Throwin' Stones

GRAVEROBBER, Check this out. Estimated is one of my fav songs. Somewhere in there I believe is reference to Bobby relaying that Estimated takes a good deal of its influence from the "crazy" person on the streetcorner. "The end is near", etc. But make of it what you will. I love this song. It has a triumphant but slightly misguided, well intentioned feel to it that is often worth gold

Fantastic. I'll be interested to hear your review. The loud pre FM sources on LMA are perfect for that show. Source provided is one. I don't think you'll be disappointed. It's a monster
