Lots of submissions from this show. 2 well-played sets - this is my favorite Stagger Lee, not sure exactly why it just has IT.

The freakin harmonies on this one I miss that trio singing Euro 72 style. Back when Phil could sing that high

This one gets up here for Brent's creativity during the Jam. UJB sandwich 2nd set is sweet.

The outro jam into drums is great orchestra. Real well-played version with great Brent vocs.

I like the stage battle prior. Brokedown Mighnight hour Midnight hour Brokedown. OK Midnight Hour Brokedown. Very hot version.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

The Centrum

I love this version. Slipknot is especially essential material. Great thoughtful jamming by all. Well weaved together and it never gets itself lost. But yes, as much as I love 84 there is always that flub. This one is indeed funny. Almost flawless to these ears outside of that mistake.

Bobby cuts Jerry off at a point where he was seriously going somewhere super heavy but still some incredible jamming going on here. This may be my new return version favorite as well.

Tight and energy dripping version. Lots of '84 love.
