Is there such a thing as a mellow Watchtower? This might be it. Goes into a great Dew

Dupree's Diamond Blues

Silva Hall - Hult Center for the Performing Arts

One of those heady, gritty early 80's Duprees. Also Jerry nails the lyrics! No fumbles at all, astonishing really

Lovely show opener, mix is a bit wonky at first but Phil is all over it. Great show all in all!

Peppy Iko to start the night off - good show overlooked by the rest of the run

They take their time for the intro. Right out of space into this Spencer Davis cover. Brent is the MAN!!! Phil in top form too of course :)

Spacey Fried Goodness!
Samson and Delilah

Awesome Samson, gets somehow even more smokin' after the 5 min mark

Strand Lyceum

Weaving in and out of the Playin'/Main Ten theme throughout this one. Might be mistaken but this is the longest/one of the longer Playin's on the E72 tour

Lovely, dynamic and engaging DS. Big fan of when you can hear everyone clearly and how they each drive the jams.

When people talk about "Phil-led" shows and songs, this is what they mean. Excellent Other One
