The "Strangers" from this whole run seem uniformly hot, and this doesn't disappoint.

Digging some 1990s spring tour lately. The LIG from this show is obviously magical, but there's great stuff throughout.

Wish they would have nailed the back-to-back premieres, but

Worth a listen to the first Althea on the historic night of Tiger's premiere.

Drums

Honestly I rarely listen to a full Drums, but Billy's playing all evening is really interesting. There are some WoS problems throughout, and you can tell he's giving extra because sometimes he's loudest in the mix. He interacts with everyone and plays really nuances parts, all while holding down a laid-back, so-tight-it's-almost-sloppy groove all night. This drums falls in the middle of a longer, interesting jam, and I'm glad they gave him the spotlight!

Been glad to see so many new folks on the site! Spun this again the other night, and it sounded to me like there's definitely a Dark Star-ish jam in here (both with references to the main riff and in the type of playing they do). Whole show is a must-hear.
