My birthday show (albeit a few years early). Worth it just to hear what comes out of Bobby's throat at the beginning of the song.

From an all-around great show (the extra accent in the count-in must have caused some smiles)

It sounds like the boys gave a little extra on these "American" songs for their European fans.

Great, but Jerry does take a dive on the outro riff of "Fire." Solid otherwise though.

I've been trying to branch out more and listen to some different years. Jerry hits peak after peak and sounds great.

I've grown to love these Ken Lee AUDs. It's the closest I've ever come to ever hearing what it was like to BE there.
