They brought the audience down for an extended 3-song vacay in the Big Easy, capped off with a jumpin Iko. Stamp of approval from this Cajun deadhead.

Instead of taking you on the usual, mindboggling journey upon wings of a young dove taking her first solo flight, this one places you on the seat of a mighty stallion, riding alongside a roaring freight train to reach the beachside town of a familiar, yet new lover, Eyes of the World, where you go on to have a night that will change both of your lives and bring you together for as long as you shall live.
