Not Fade Away

Activity Center. Arizona State U

Holy psychedelic juggling devil sticks, Batman! Once people check in here, watch this one climb.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Nov. 14, 1971
Texas Christian University

Desolation Row
July 19, 1990
Deer Creek Music Center

Sublime. The band, collectively and individually, masters the swells and ebbs of this lyric-laden song with poise and frolic. As with other shows on this tour, Brent’s ebullient runs are flying high. This is the pinnacle version.

Monterey Performing Arts Center
