Man, they're having a blast. Totally firing on all cylinders, and clipping along at 90mph. Great stuff.

Solid rockin' version with a cruisin' pulse and tight ensemble playing at high energy.

Back from Europe with all the polish and power of a masterpiece: They've perfected the arc and emotional nuance. Miller cleanup is best (duh).

Gets pretty hard rock in places. This whole show, actually, has a high voltage rock vibe unlike all others on the tour. Underrated show all round.

Utterly gobsmacked that this ain't here yet: It's a furious barnburner. Full of get up and go.

Acoustic bliss and the coolest vocal outro out there.

This whole show is filled with killer '70 gems. And Bobby, Jerry and Pig seem like they were all trying to out sing the other. Rare the show with such consistent vocal excellence. And this Candyman just blows me away again and again.

Sweet and short with Bobby sounding great.

Goes pretty far out, but never loses the intense melodicism and rhythmic driving that characterises this great show. A beauty.
