Silky silky goodness. Brent makes this version. He owns a nice little groove right at the end. Pretty solid version

Heart wrenching and gorgeous. Rivals my favorite from Dead Set, but just a step below. Incredibly beautiful though, spilling with emotion

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Easily overlooked because of the magical Playin'>UJB>Dew>UJB>Playin' earlier in the set - this version still shines brightly all on it's own

Very sweet version. Boys hit a nice sweet spot in this jam. '91 was a decent year for this tune.
Playin' In The Band

Hofheinz Pavilion

Holy hellfire! This version defies words. Listened to this 3 times today to make up for not having heard it before. I love how the machine gun jamming finally calms down, then on the drop of a dime Billy kicks back in and the boys are instantly in high gear again. Priceless!
