I actually dig Hornsby's flare on this. Jerry nails a sweet solo at the end too. Very heartfelt

Full head of steam. Good Phil work on a song that is typically a Jerry shredfest highlight reel (this is still a Jerry shredfest highlight reel)

Short and sweet. Jerry rips a tight solo in the middle

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Ok, one of the two most glorified shows of all time (you can guess the other), and for good reason. Kicking China with a hot, bouncy jam, seamless IKYR transition. Powerful version - another jewel in the crown of a timeless show. Haven't spun in a while, glad i revisited

Boys came out the gate like a rabid dog. Jerry sounds like he is going to jump off the stage. Great energy
