Easy breezy with the glinty afterglare of yore. Drifty transition to boot. Nice twilight septet memory making.

Hard hat 92, bluegrass plinky. Alchemical goop-laden improv. bluesy panache.

touching simplicity of row bridges the bullet-train nowness of this ripping bizarre banger. Post-capitalist freako jazz hair metal..

Warfield Theater

Splendid chops, mydland brings a seasonsed and refined sense of Laurel Canyon wistful. Garcia hits a heroic lick at 2:40 on reckoning version. this cassidy goes hard af!
Dark Star

Tivolis Koncertsal

great one.... stays quiet for long, gorgeus jam. Godchaux comes alive and sends the whole thing into a globed igloo spherick. Seems to make soft puppy pileons and goldie rainbows through instrumental perfection. Billy catches everything and the invigorating coolness of a lite space into more jazz-rock with pig and soaring jer.
The Other One
April 11, 1972
Newcastle City Hall

Good ole grate, autobahn E72 TOO, wavyness and caves. Playfully painting each other's sentences like fawns, drifting askew, chronically in the other's blood streams from the same cauldron. Siamese twins bringing their own young to life. This to1 has that dark star searching for your keys side of the story cinematically offset by wondrously cheery lights. Interludes

Swampy and charged up
