I like reading the reviews and all but I was hoping that the reviewer would not overlook this version of Maze. This version in my opinion was a very noteworthy performance.(if in a bad way) The transition between the first solo and keyboard solo was botched by Trey. Page couldn't get the band to hit the peak C chord twice during his solo. Trey's second solo was brought to a quick completion with little tension....THEN during the outro Trey couldn't land his delayed chords in the right place. This version was so weird to me that I was almost wondering if their whole monitoring system had gone out during the song.

I love this song and I have heard so many versions that I can safely say that it was the worst I have ever heard. The fact that one song being botched can be a dealbreaker for me speaks volumes at how much I love this band.(or how much being a hardcore fan can be a detriment sometimes.)

All of the reviews I have read have not brought this song up. So I felt it had to be said.
Totally agree. This Maze was such a trainwreck all throughout that I couldn’t help but laugh several times while listening...luckily the rest of the show was very well played throughout. Imagine it would have been a blast to be there!
