'73 was a special year for He's Gone. Could Keith play any sweeter than on this version? I think not.

Man did I ever love Sugar Mag sandwich 2nd sets. It always signalled a dance marathon ahead. Add in my favorite Brent transition ever to Scarlet.

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.

This is one of my favorite versions also. The band is on fire at the Creek.

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.
