Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

SCREAMING start to the show. Boys attack like rabid dogs. Great Brent solo in here. Welcome to Red Rocks!

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one opens up nicely, and continually unfolds, into a seamless segue into PITB reprise

Boutwell Auditorium

They are playing in Birmingham, the song mentions Birmingham, mass crowd hysteria ensues. Hot version though, so justifiable

Fox Theatre

Really melodic jam, which builds incrementally in velocity and intensity - then, screaming sunshine daydream

This isn't usually my song, but this one totally swings. Super fun

Fantastic opener. Jerry playing some fun licks. Very bouncy, and great way to kick off

War Memorial

The mini jam in this one is a hot little potato. Jerry fluttering over the frets like a hummingbird.
Samson and Delilah

Philadelphia Civic Center

I'm usually not a big Samson fan, but this one has some serious muscle. Force of an elbow drop from the top ropes. High energy!

Philadelphia Civic Center

This Wheel > Wharf segment added to the recent DP is gold. Spinning a lot. Fantastic version
