SHOCKED this one wasn't mentioned yet. Even with the crushing cut out in the SBDs, this version still stands at the top

Very hot, tight jam segment. Song has the best lyric ever written: "Let your life proceed by it's own design"

By all accounts, this is a rather goofy song, but i love this version. Entire show is spot on

If this doesn't have you smiling ear to ear at the Hey Jude peak, hold a mirror to your mouth to make sure you are still breathing, because you may be clinically dead.

Super energetic, crisp, and dextrous handling from Jerry. How you start a New Years show with a BANG
It's All Over Now Baby Blue
May 19, 1966
Avalon Ballroom

Super strong, early version - driving drum beat. Jerry crisp on the vocals

Is there slop in here? Oh you better believe it - BUT, this Slipknot! has a flat out bonkers, high octane jam. Jerry is a freight train of frantic energy, making this one special.

Electric Theater

Ramp up jam at the end has Bruce Banner ferocity. BIGGG ONE!
