This is such a high energy show that even the useless blues rocks!

This is the 3rd song of 6 played that usually opens a first set. This is the last Bama for almost 5 years. Smokin version at that!

Have always loved this first set. This is the second of 6 songs that are usually openers. The mid-jam is shredded by Jer and Brent. Awesome version

I always loved that they did this. How cool! Check out the awesome stand alone Fire from Egypt out of Ollin Arageed, too.

Ok, I was a little harsh. I have listened to it a few times...for me it has a little too much of non-focused "weirdness," which is not my favorite thing, but I am ok with others digging that. I will give another listen. Love the McEnroe shout out! Almost should upvote for that alone.

Don't forget the best O1 also. The Cryptical reprise is just as mind-blowing. As stated before DS>O1>LL, greatest 90 minutes in GD history.

An amazing O1. It gets Tiger, but always stays focused.
