Drums -> Space

Madison Square Garden

Bill and Mickey start chaotically but reel it back by 04:30 and get groovy. Space feels like exploring a classic Alien planet from an old serial.

Funky af drums coming out of a cosmic Dark Star and THEN into an Other One! Bliss!

Keiths first show. Saddens me that I had to be the one to add this. It's good!

Nice grungy and smooth as hell He's Gone after a brain-melter Other One.

Not the greatest show of the tour, but this Other One is a standout and one of the greatest ive heard. Almost feels like a Dark Star at times. I have a theory that many fans dont get this deep into the 72 tour and miss out on gems like this, otherwise this would have way more votes.

Not my favourite version, but the playing is tight and the quality is hella crisp. Real good delivery from Bobby, too.
