So glad this tune made the cut for acoustic rotation and new release is fantastic. Great tension build in the jam

Super crisp song portion and tension/release jam segment. Very worthy

Jerry is crazy nimble in this. Fresh from a 30 days of dead release - a choice cut

Show starts out a bit rough - tech issues, energy, song selection. Boys seem to come alive here, with some nice Jerry leads and Keith fills

Phil creates a DEEP pocket pre-Pig rap and he, Jerry, and Bobby emerge as a three-headed monster of groove. Post-rap, Jerry takes over on driving the jam with a hypnotic pattern the rest of the band latches onto. Great jam!

This show is such a treat. Jam has tight staccato style like the clicking of a dial. Chunky goodness

Not a long version by any stretch, but they accomplish a ton in this ~8 min span to kick off a great set and lay down some sweet, interconnected jamming

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

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
