Bob's slide solo is actually pretty solid on this one!

The full band is on fire here. Precise delivery/playing from Jerry, creative + propulsive backing from Bob and Phil, lock-step work from the rhythm Devils and tasteful fills by Brent elevate this small tune to top tier.

Maybe the best version with Brent? Pretty incredible group improv from Brent, Jerry, and Bob.

You ever watch a baseball game where the pitcher is throwing serious heat all night, but the bats just can't come alive? That's Brent throughout this show -- and there's no better memorial to his efforts than this track. From the vocals to the keys, he is setting this GMSL ablaze.

Brent is on fire for this whole first set, but somehow this divisive song highlights the depth of his contributions. His improvisations throughout the whole song send this one into the stratosphere long before any real jamming takes place.
