Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Franklin's Tower

Uptown Theater

excellent, spritely tadpoles on a meltkissed brook. Unique and hot chicago jam to follow. Aromas of Stranger and dancin' blended in with old school Feelin' groovy Tighten up/Hard to handle/Soul vibes. Mesmerizing and radiant passage of virtuosity effortlessly woven into deep groove. Powerfully kinetic.
