Short, but listen to crowd freak out when the riff starts. Solid show on Lennon's birthday.

Trippy board effects on vocals. Everything this song should be.

welcome aboard Moses! Poke around and find what you like, it's never too late. cgarces is spot on with those recommendations, both are killer. I'd add 7/31/82 (my first favorite) and 2/5/78 (my current fav).
