Unthinkable that such headiness be left from the lists! Stunning swagger, swooshing Phil, bril transition, mad jams.

Part of a first set that just kicks with horsepower from the 1st note. Purposeful, driving and strong. Hot stuff.

Muscular and edgy, with that amazing off-kilter propulsion unique to this song.

Sharp as a tack with lots of energy and a strong pulse. Clear they were having a great time.

Furious shredding, blisteringly hot.

Slow building intense ride. Around 10th minute Jerry starts sounding like a room full of guitars jamming as one.

This is a great show. The band seems to be experimenting with so much, and the sound is really gentle, really "less is more". The Stephen>Jam seems so fragile in places, like gossamere or dancing fragments of memory, but constantly driving forward, too.

Really beautiful and long. Goes into a modal jam reminiscent of "Sketches of Spain" around 12:00.
