spreaditround SET 1: Tweezer: Really slow start exudes confidence. Big, big loops to introduce the jam. Beginning of the jam almost as a California Love feel to it. Roaring jam. The quiet two minutes at the end are not to be discounted though, good stuff in there… >

Theme From the Bottom: Intro is a MESS. The jam though, smoking!

Foam: Love it. They take it down to almost silent at 7:00 and the crowd is so entranced they stay silent, hard to do at Hampton Coliseum. This Foam SMOKES.

Pebbles and Marbles: For a second somewhere in the 8:30’s it sounds like CDT. Has some DWD to it to around 9:20. Trey is just destroying this. 10:33 just going for broke – sick. The 11:00’s are just incredible – Trey off the deep end, possibly drooling and just generally rearranging your face.

You Enjoy Myself: Restart, lol. How embarrassing. Pre-nirvana section is very heady. First shot at the note is awesome. Second one sucks. Mike is so, so good in this jam. They go on rage the hell out of this. How aggressive is Trey starting at 16:45? 17:56 look out below, all hell is released.

SET 2: Birds of a Feather: Good jam to open up the set. The ending has some slop to it.

Wolfman's Brother: This is so nasty. The funk is very thick. Nice held note by Trey in the mid 12’s and into the early 13’s. >

Makisupa Policeman: Really, really like this little jam. Nice, fat yet subtle loops going on in the background. I could listen to this all day long on repeat.

Axilla: Standard. >

Twist: I LOVE the head space this one finds itself in the last couple of minutes. Way into outer space. The effects are fantastic. ->

Free, All of These Dreams: Standard. Possum: Standard.

ENCORE: Contact: Fun, funky version.

Tweezer Reprise: Standard.

Replay Value/Summary: The whole first set. Seriously. Highlights throughout and Wolfman’s, Makisupa, and Contact. Show smokes. I give it an even 4 out of 5. Tons and tons of highlights.
