Groovy yoga from soft space to barroom swashbuckler of a brent wheel. Crack harmonies and psyched out blissy vibe. Pummeling!! no jam

Embryonic, unhinged and primal! Tiger lead is positively lacerating, everyone in attendance was split into dust

powerful one from a 5-show hockey rink run. Zeus bolt tone and magnitude, exciting stuff.

beautiful, exemplary Disco dancing, Jerrt going the distance once again, his crazy fingers getting a workout at this freaking awesome show that was memorialized, some of it anyhow, on DP29.
Ramble On Rose

Fox Theatre

One of the best ones ever, dizzyingly powerful solo and all the vocals as well. something about this version is addicting like a tooth worm too! // 3rd time ive come back to edit this just to say, if there's a better Ramble idk it. the solo is simply jerry at his finest, that moan at 5:42 is haunting and the last build up and verse is like a gust of arctic sun
