Jerry plays Bob's double time rythym in lead at the end. Unique and intense.

The band is absolutely on fire during this night, the first set and on this duo. It amazes me that this amazing show is totally forgotten.

Huge TOO > Morning Dew. The Phil led transition between the two songs is the best five minutes of TOO > Dew ever done.

One of the very best He's Gone > TOO ever done.

Sadly, the very last He's Gone > TOO ever played. Amazing to think they never did another one for 13 years.

To my knowledge this is the only TOO (or any song for that matter) where Jerry and Bob play a guitar duet to lead into the song by themselves out of the drums. It is rather interesting to SEE (youtube, official GD release). It isn't easy to hear or tell that this is what's going on just listening to the tapes.
