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

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

Great call, cgarces. An incubator, early phase Playing, that hits the cosmos quickly. Great energy!!

Haha, nice, cgarces! I plan on posting 2,318 versions of 'crowd noise.' The race is on... But seriously, how/why did art become a competition?

May not be note perfect, but the build, the tension and release, and the massive finish make this one really special. Jerry is fanning the flames hard at the ending. Perfectly paced throughout

Great call on the Spectrum version, '67 - very confident effort from the boys. Jerry and Brent are especially dialed in. The end jam drips slowly into measured madness before sliding into Terrapin. Props
