uctweezer @mcgrupp81: very nice win my friend! I was looking in '97 and '98 but couldn't pin this to a Fall '97 show despite knowing the tour very well.

From the @waxbanks review:
The meat of Set II is the 37-minute Simple > Timber, a completely *seamless* multipart improvisation that evolves from the delicate Simple outro form to a more assertive one-chord rock-anthem groove and beyond. After one of those nervewracking funk grooves that so often acted as bridging passages in those days (the way complex ambient spaces have lately served as musical glue in 2009-10), the jam cools back down. Fish suggests Bowie; Trey has other ideas; amid the resulting engine-room noise Fish transforms the Bowie hi-hat line into the Timber drumbeat, the whole band picks up on the suggestion, and we're right into a slightly mutated take on that song. The Timber jam is, as ever, an eerie minor-key stomp - and it ends wonderfully, in quiet.

I think I know what I'm listening to today! @RabeldyNugs and @bl002e: glad to see the MJM back. Keep 'em coming!
