The_Good_DoctorIf you didn't read the line up, here it is in all caps:

TREY ANASTASIO + MIKE GORDON + BILL KREUTZMANN + IVAN NEVILLE

I mean what could go wrong? Well, absolutely nothing.

Looking out across the Civic Center when these dudes kicked open the lid on Pandora's box and chugged through Nirvana's 'On a Plain' ... so beautifully bizarre, just off the f'n PKE meter, Egon ... a cerebral flotation device emerged with Jam > Waves > Jam and then 'Loose Lucy' rocked so hard it shook the blessed rafters down from heaven and the gods smiled with delight. Ambrosia all around.

Once in a lifetime arrangement, grateful to have heard it once. If anyone has a recording of this please, please hit me up.
