P.N.E. Coliseum

Show starts out a bit rough - tech issues, energy, song selection. Boys seem to come alive here, with some nice Jerry leads and Keith fills

Perfect tone, swells, and peaks. This soars

INCREDIBLY slinky. Excellent action Brent-side on this.

Brent and Jerry trade smoking solos, then mesh at the final end jam. Choice

Early, beta version of the track, the (albeit brief) jam in this is strong

They Love Each Other

Civic Center

Oh man, Jerry absolutely SHINES on this. So crisp and tight, bouncy and vibrant. Highly recommended

Up vote for sure. Jerry is out for blood....
Ain't It Crazy (The Rub)

The Matrix

Donnie, a) awesome jam and thank you; b) welcome to the board; and c) is your handle picture from 'Manos: Hands of Fate' - if so, HUGE props. That movie is a tragic failure of catastrophic proportions and makes for one of my favorite MST3K episodes.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 26, 1980
Oakland Auditorium Arena

Wow, not a note wasted on this S>F! Tight, though exploratory, the Scarlet delivers everything one could hope for in a rollicking rendition, and the Fire pushes this one well over the top. Very choice. From my perspective, '80 and '76 are consistently the most overlooked years for the boys (though i am uncertain as to 'why'). Glad i stumbled on this - prop glynparson!

Bordering on frantic energy. Urgent, densely wound, tizzy of a Cassidy
