Metropolitan Sports Center

The SBD I scooped had a Wang Dang Doodle-ish soundcheck that came with it. Some pretty slinky shit. Worth checking if you can track it down

Massive version! Was spinning on the treadmill at the gym and felt like I was going to run through the wall. Serious way to open a show!

Always liked this version. Brent comes through nicely, band is together and on point. Leads into a nice playin'. Good ish

I was going from memory when I made the show opener comment and lord knows my memory is turrrrible... I am also a stickler for a tickler and will appropriately hang my head in shame. Version is solid as it gets though. Glad it's getting love!
Eyes Of The World

Roscoe Maples Pavilion - Stanford University

For some reason, I've held off on this show forever. Was pleasantly surprised by the entire show and this Eyes is premium ish. Good post!
