I'm just glad I never broke Brent's heart. Anyway, great vocals, solos, and overall performance on this excellent Healy matrix. "Ah, what the hell!"

Very fine post-Brent-era version with Bruce helping out on piano. The closing jam sounds like a segue into TOO, but leads into D/S.

Sandwiches Lovelight, but funky jamming in the outro. Bop bop

Like 6/22/93 Deer Creek, this well-sung and -performed version is a nice capper to a strong evening.

Vince teases Stagger Lee starting at 4:00 and continuing through Jerry's MIDI solo. A nice variation - has the band done this before?

DS67, if you're checking out more from this show, I can recommend this. Unusual outro jam on Saint, it sounds to me like Jerry drops out and Bobby takes the lead. Bobby sounds great throughout - making up for the TMNS travesty in set one ;-)

Disco was already dead, but you wouldn't know by listening to this version - very danceable.

Hornsby and Jerry start playing the chug-a-lug Around and Around rhythm after the "Pearly's been true" verse at 6:15, leading into a rocking 2 1/2 minute jam.

"May This Be Love" - Mickey is having some fun with a sample of Hendrix's guitar intro from 2:45-4:30. Then the Neville Bros join at around 7:00 for some excellent percussion jamming. Exceptional Drums!
