A Wharf Rat that convinces to the point of perfection. One of the best....period.

A cannon into outer space; Enters uncharted territory; Reminiscent of 73' DS jams; Locked and zoned in jamming.

Wicked dark star<dew, no question this is one of the best versions of the year. The range of sound is incredible They play as soft and as loud as they can and balance the song perfectly providing an absolutely perfect final crescendo.

IMHO the song can't get much better then how they played it on this night. Whole show presents the band in top form and this rat is right up there with the truckin' as the highlights from the performance.
