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

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

Springfield Civic Center

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 $$$$

Seriously high octane. A very subtle St Stephen lick by Jerry in the closing jam

Very nice moment.

Very cool Ollin Jam into a nice, early version Shakedown, sliding effortlessly into a Playin' Reprise. The end of this jam comes together nicely with some staccato type playing from Jerry

The Spectrum

HUGE call and response interplay between Bobby and Jerry. Fan of bluesy back and forth axemanship?? Yes please.

Uptown Theater

Agree, sweet wind up for this one

Jerry solo is an emotional swing for the fences. Powerful, within the expected framework of this somber song
