2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Greatest Story Ever Told

Stanley Theatre

Yes Yes YES! The Stephen jam is just completely off the rails and Bobby's comment adds great vibes. I just posted one from Austin that I think references St S but comes nowhere to close to this level. Whew!
