MIDI Horn fest on Jerry's end + the Vince synths make this an interesting MSWM. Carrying over the tame energy from the Eyes beforehand. Solo Vince

Sandstone Amphitheatre

Excellent dueling keyboard version - Bruce on accordion and Vince on the synths. I love the Brent versions with the B3, but the keys fit well here

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Jerry repeats "Look out Stagger Lee" with quite a bit of fervor at the end, excellent version. Entire band is locked into high gear

Not the most intense but solid execution and beautiful band interplay

Maybe it's just me but the keyboards give it a bit of a Calypso vibe
Samson and Delilah

Oakland Auditorium

"It being Sunday we're gonna start out with a spiritual number" - Bobby at the start. Indeed

The execution on the Organ is insane - R.I.P. Brent

Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

Truly underrated - give it a spin and try telling me this ain't Heady
