Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

This is a lightening fast bowl of nose clams, played 100x the speed of hyperspace. Worth it just to hear how fast the boys ventured to take this on

Not the longest, by any stretch, but incredibly airy and beautiful for Bobby's B-day. Worth a listen for sure

Springfield Civic Center

Super interesting jam out of a surprising Truckin' > NFBM jam > Drums > Feeling Groovy jam. The first few min of keys/drum/bass after drums is $$$$

Dusted this show off for the first time in ages and loved the respin. This Playin' > Crazy > Sailor > Saint sequence is melodic butter, with version of CF as the highlight. Such a bute
Dire Wolf

McArthur Court, U of Oregon

This is my favorite of all the wolves. So crisp and vibrant. This song serves its role as a first set vibe booster in the best possible way. This version is a “glue guy” performance reason why this is an all-time show
