I loved the return of this song. This is a great version in an oustanding 1st set.

Kicks off potentially the most epic set 2, with a bouncy excellent version of the song. Forget the lyrical flubs.

I love how they bring back Slipknot! from nothing after the Samson. And the Franklin's is aamazing with this great drum roll outro! My favorite, so good.

Should be noted that this one is where they slowed the tempo back down.

Tight, smooth and very energetic version. 6/18 is maybe a tick better to me, but there is no denying this excellent version. Love the bridge in to Big River.
