feels good to get lost in a good fluid jed, the light at end of the tunnellin' jokester's mountain. Barrelhouse vince, weir and lesh and fire jer bear

Uncle John's Band

Augusta Civic Center

A found paradise of a mammoth '84 UJB, replete with D minor hellfire. Shining armor, stallions are gliding into some snow-trodden insanity

Brent Mydland, keyboard wizard and vocal titan.
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

Surging, clarion version of one of their best post-70's songs, a towering obelisk of swirly song.
Cold Rain and Snow

Augusta Civic Center

Great cold rain. Just majestic, perfectly pressing in all the right places in my sonic field. Jer's voice, and everyone in general sounds great in this show. People are saying it's shot/hoarse, which is true, but the force and inflection definitely make up for this, he's putting it out there tonight in Augusta maine, 84.

Inspired, lean and mean. Burning 80's cumberland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orRS84sOFPE
