Cobo Arena

The jazzy '76 feel brings out the polka in the song a bit more than in other years.

During Alligator, post-drums. One of the most discernible, helps that show was recorded on multi-track.

Uncle John's Band

Fox Theatre

Sad I missed the chance to order the Dave's Picks release of this show last fall.
Promised Land
Oct. 8, 1989
Hampton Coliseum

Deserves a vote just for how emphatic the line "Los Angeles, get me Norfolk, Virginia" is delivered.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Dec. 31, 1976
Cow Palace

Agreed, might be best Slipknot!.

Nitro-burning funny song.
On The Road Again
Aug. 7, 1982
