11/18/94 Michigan State U. Auditorium (Rvwd 1/95) This 14 minute Tweezer, although more upbeat than Tweezers I've
heard of late, is great, but by "great" I mean of course average. Opening segment is standard, although the tempo is perhaps
slightly more quick than usual. The jam is very dark, strong, and tweezeresque in the beginning. No teases of other tunes. Trey
picks up on a cool theme, and begins soloing over the others more quickly than usual. Mike, Page, and Fish are just pounding
away. Starts getting weird (with 'Wedge'-like drumz from Fish!) at the 6 and half min mark or so. The jam stays strong.. it
doesn't fall into a spacey, chilled-out psychedelic mode or anything.. but it is just plain common (though bordering on dissonant
at times). Nothing much to say about this, really. The jam stays pretty damn strong all the way through, so there is no special
peak that is worthy of mention. No bullshit. It just doesn't sound that amazing of a jam, especially when compared to several of
the Great Tweezers. The ending isn't quite the typical dying out of the theme, although at its start I thought it was going to be. It
still dies out, but Page screws around enormously, doing little ditties on the piano here and there (nothing to get excited about) in
the last few bars of the tune. Standard, great version. 5.0 rating. (C+) Thanks to JR Trimpe for this very fine d-aud ! Those of
you present were lucky to get the Bathtub Gin->Lifeboy!! Niiice! BTW, this Tweezer ending essentially segues into an off-key
Contact that is a really decent version. No reprise.
