Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Carrier Dome, Syracuse U

Jester's hat jack in the box, terrific, bolstering. Transition is just as robustly banging as any from the 70's, rider gives off vibes of a demented ramble on.

popping carbonated frizzy sensationally gliding with ease, summoned by the tide!! Tiger quality, unreal weir bending the axis, lesh shattering egos, mydland sworded and double horned rose vision of the devils. Swoops for clean invigorated stealie 83 versh.

Carrier Dome, Syracuse U

Hasn't been a go-to tune for me, nonetheless this ones very slappin. At its best its a showcase for crack harmonies, vibe influential to the jam band genre in terms of slowcooked southern funk and marathon mutron!! Always a harbringer of a focused involved set.
