Hard and weird from the start, great beam work and slashy industrial noise cuts

Nassau Coliseum

Played extremely well with a punchy, unpredictable back-end jam. Pretty shocked this isn't on the list at all yet

Like the rest of this gem of a show played with passion and gusto - energetic, crisp, playful, the stuff dreams are made of

Incredible segue into the other one, and the little shift in melody near the end is also *chef's kiss*

Phil is bonkers on this one, super choice
China Doll

Richmond Coliseum

Agreed on this and the comment about the whole second set - the meltdown jam into China Doll is glorious and deep, so fucking good.
