Jack Straw

Spartan Stadium - San Jose State University

Brent's 1st song with the band. Multiple Lesh bombs, rollicking drums, smoking Jerry licks, and impassioned vocals. Fine welcome to the band!

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Melkweg

This is a lightening fast bowl of nose clams, played 100x the speed of hyperspace. Worth it just to hear how fast the boys ventured to take this on

Melkweg

Not the longest, by any stretch, but incredibly airy and beautiful for Bobby's B-day. Worth a listen for sure

Super interesting jam out of a surprising Truckin' > NFBM jam > Drums > Feeling Groovy jam. The first few min of keys/drum/bass after drums is $$$$

This is an adventure
Brokedown Palace

Sorry, think this is supposed to be 10/3. Refering to the one on Dead Set. Wikipedia has the wrong date listed. Give it a spin - my favorite version hands down
Not Fade Away
Sept. 19, 1970
Fillmore East

Respun this one during a long flight yesterday. Was rock out pretty hard. Got an odd look from the guy next to me when I finally took off my headphones. This NFA is the GOODS, check it out
Morning Dew

St. Stephen

Really smooth, beautiful jam. Dug it
