Really fascinating space/jam after drums, lots of other one hints that ends in an abrupt NFA transition

Phil-tastic - some vocal miscues but excellent regardless

Real party vibes to this show - the boys were just having a great time, and it must've been even more fun in person

Fiery outro into the O1. Solid vocals as well

Even with the tape flip around 10:55 this might be one of my favorite Other One's ever. The Phil Jam early on and the slipknot-ish jam closing out this O1 are just so awesome. Cannot recommend this highly enough and as a magnificent bonus this goes into a fantastic Morning Dew
