Fox Theatre

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

Uptown Theater

Very heady jam segment in this one. Show is a sleeper from May

The latter half of a great on-two punch to kick off the show (1/2 step preceding), this Cassidy is an absolute bute. Bob/Jer communication is tight

Jerry rips a sick intro solo. Hyped up energy

The 'butt sweat' meter is off the charts for this. Great Brent work and killer peak

This first set is the fucking balls and this TMNS is a perfect, peaky cap to a hot opener

This came on during a walk home through the cold rain yesterday and made me smile. Its a smoker, taboot

Should be curated by Neil Degrasse Tyson. Super heady exploration of the cosmos, with a very nimble and shiny run through the verses preceding it. Interesting the 2nd set getting so much love (very well deserved, for sure), but the first set is an absolute scorcher as well, as mentioned earlier. Amongst the top shows of the year, easily

This one really hits the spot. Juicy runs up the neck from Jerry. Poignant vocals. Dig it
