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

Goes sightlessly past all known stratospheres, the alignment of the collective bright glare. can lose yerself and still there is enough conversation and coordination so that some factor is constantly in a brilliant motion. It's the same for any time this or any song is really "ON", or at "The it" levels is simply that it beautifully takes the risk of straddling the line between the head and the heart, and at its peak is the fulcrum of the threshold of both experiences!
