Tons of fun - everyone's getting involved, including Keith with some nice flourishes. Jerry's solo is tight and the ending is superb.

I've always loved this song, particularly when it's uptempo and full like this version. The fire continues onto Mexicali Blues.

High energy and uptempo coming out of Mama Tried. The whole band sounds great, and Brent and Bobby provide a great rhythm section.

Great tempo and a nice friendly vibe coming out of Space. Some excellent playing by Phil. The energy continues onto Watchtower.

A fast-paced shred-fest of a Deal to close set 1. Jerry's solo can't be missed. So full of energy!

Tom Constanten is a HUGE factor in this excellent version.

Keith and Jerry go NUTS. Best-ever, in my book.

Brent blowing minds with his solo. An awesome version from an awesome show.

This one is AMAZING - off the rails in its energy level. The band explodes in the kind of fury that makes tracks like this special.

Fox Theatre

The best ever, in my opinion. It absolutely scorches. Jerry's soloing is manic, but don't count out Brent's keys - they're just as responsible for how epic this one is.
