The jittery bridge between an epic, 19-min Truckin' and a pretty cool TOO...

Kicks off an epic 34-song show in style with an excellent solo from Keith!

Love Jerry's references to "Everyday People" during his first little solo break at around 2:30. Great version.

I wish these European versions had the "shine on me" coda to feel complete, because the rest of the song is certainly played as well as it ever was on this tour. Love Jerry's slide work around the 10-minute mark in this one.

I really like the setlist pacing of putting this right before an epic DS, just like they did the show before this one in Paris.

One of the better ones. Jerry's guitar really sounds like a locomotive chugging down the tracks during the climax!

Shot out of a cannon is the perfect way to put it, Ragnaroar...holy hell, this version smokes! Pig's rap just after being shot out of the cannon and Jerry and Billy's accompaniment to it is fantastic too. Gotta love Pig capping it off with "and it tasted mighty good..." as the song ends!
