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

epic version. I can already see the acid freaks wailing in existential despair during the peaks of space. Mega heady. So good

Knickerbocker Arena

sensational version of Terrapin. Every transition feels like a curtain falling to reveal a new, more emotionally charged and turbulent layer, even though i've heard this song dozens of times.
