Easy breezy with the glinty afterglare of yore. Drifty transition to boot. Nice twilight septet memory making.

Hard hat 92, bluegrass plinky. Alchemical goop-laden improv. bluesy panache.

touching simplicity of row bridges the bullet-train nowness of this ripping bizarre banger. Post-capitalist freako jazz hair metal..

Logan roy's choppers on the LI sound of a symphonic magnetic version. Windmilling devils at bulldozer. another house arrest sizzler

does this tour ever miss?!?!... whisked to perfection, the ways they can anticipate each other rhythmically in this very "together" founding fathers lineup is always breathtaking! Top gun maverick midi, Lesh goes hendrix at the peak(s!!) he always loves that hard rock caveman stuff

... Wow dude. :-0 let me slap my vpn on (so as to dissuade the CIA agents who will suck me in for speaking ill of their pretend cornell show) but maybe this and at least a couple of the Passaic NJ shows, the buffalo and boston set 2's are more my speed, go furthur still... Exhibit A this 3min Jerry solo sermon... before a truly propulsive buffet Wharf a la the 6/8 and 10/7 ragers. Firestorm
