Definitely check out the jam on this one - midi shredfest with lots of intricate choreography, what a killer!!! The version of he's gone to follow is a highlight for sure, another dynamite spring 90 gig

Mind shredding set one Standing. lyric is a bit of a geography lesson but Jerry sells it with aplomb and a lot of weighty passion... phenomenal mature texture on this lurking ballad.

Dinosaur dystopian stomper, another rendition that gives them a chance to get technical with the improv, always pushing the boundaries with this one, prep school animal farm lyrics.

Copps Coliseum

Metronomes up for this clear-eyed, full-hearted rendition, not your run of the mill set 1 filler - jer and phil gussy it up with fist-pumping arena rock, aviary glide and plinky stage piano patch
