Good version sandwiched between HCS and the big jam suite...

Seems like this show needs more love around here...a few high vote-getters, but the whole thing rocks

Compare this to the version from Düsseldorf two nights prior, and you have the difference between the two shows overall IMO. Both are very energetic, but Düsseldorf's is wild and crazy, whereas this one is studio-tight...

Bob's rhythm playing during the jam is fantastic on this one! This could be the best night of the tour for the guitars...
