this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Drums -> Space

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

Uncle John's Band

Shoreline Amphitheatre

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 28, 1993
Knickerbocker Arena

this spritely, devilishly spirited scarlet fire deserves to have its champions. Its an under the radar beauty!!!! Lesh is just masterful, he is the anchor of this band in many ways. the way he deliciously plays around the beat and his articulations, and his development over time, all of it is just devastating. Transitions intuitively wobbles between fist pumping glory and jazzy exploration with plenty of that dope ass midi shit. Overall goes the distance and is quite the set up for set 2.
