Jam Chart for shows in the city of Noblesville, IN (93 entries)
| Date | Song | City | Timing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1995-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 11:47 | Although essentially "Type I," there is a high degree of melodic variation from Trey in this strong summer '95 version. | |
| 1995-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 16:12 | Jamming both ethereal and measured builds from a pensive calm into a dreamy sort of intensity. Trey locks in upon a great, grooving theme. Strong work from Mike and Fish incites more fueled and focused soloing from Trey, which, offset by some impassioned Page, rises to a great release. | |
| 1995-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 10:53 | Dissonant version with a little brief funky Page action thrown in the mix before returning for a blistering peak. | |
| 1995-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 23:19 | -> in from "Simple." Cool, somewhat unusual jam that begins without all the usual thrashing and dissonance. Has some "MLB"-like jamming and gets out there as it progresses. | |
| 1995-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 23:30 | Beautiful opening segment. | |
| 1995-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 13:58 | Somewhat of an evil "Possum" that grows increasingly tense, dissonant and shrill, and includes an unusual stop. | |
| 1996-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 9:16 | Exceptionally strong version featuring great solos and tight playing from all four musicians. | |
| 1996-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 9:52 | Excellent percussion support from Fish in this choppy, discordant jam. | |
| 1996-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 7:39 | Set II opener. Excellent Deer Creek version with nice Fish and Page contributions. Transition to "Sparkle" once again. | |
| 1996-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 12:29 | Rhythmic variation plus good dissonance combine to put this intense version outside the box. | |
| 1996-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 14:06 | Extended intro with cool funky Mike and Trey. Jam peaks at 10:30, then drops into dissonant mode before re-powering. | |
| 1996-08-13 | Noblesville, IN | 16:10 | Majestic and grand. Right up there with 10/31/94, just a different style and vibe. If you are a fan of Page's piano playing, this one is for you. | |
| 1996-08-13 | Noblesville, IN | 12:19 | Page stays on the piano throughout which gives this version a majesty similar to 12/30/93. Trey's restraint early on puts the spotlight nicely on Mike, Page, and Fish. Of course Trey makes a strong showing near the ending. | |
| 1996-08-13 | Noblesville, IN | 10:31 | Intense and hard rocking straightforward version. Great Trey and Page. > to "The Lizards." | |
| 1996-08-13 | Noblesville, IN | 22:47 | A super-heavyweight, multi-section version features a 1st jam that includes exotic sounding scales and serious tension loading. At 9:05, the 2nd jam begins with intense, rhythmic rocking and swirling guitar play. By 15:30, the firestorm has cooled, and Page takes the lead on multiple keyboards as Trey opts for the mini kit, before a final cathartic conclusion, reinforced by the "Lifeboy" that follows. | |
| 1996-08-13 | Noblesville, IN | 8:18 | Wrapping up an impressive "Groove," this version includes strong playing by Trey, funk, percussion, and Page on theremin. -> to "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" with Page on theremin. | |
| 1997-08-10 | Noblesville, IN | 17:32 | Improvisational heavyweight version which breaks into a full jam on King Crimson's "Larks' Tongues In Aspic Part II" around 10:25. From there, it settles, then rebuilds into "SOAM" with a quick tempo and "Third Stone from the Sun" teasing. Released on Live Bait 12. | |
| 1997-08-10 | Noblesville, IN | 14:35 | Reaches a near-transcendent peak, and closes the first set in a brilliant fashion. Practically "HOSE." IT. | |
| 1997-08-10 | Noblesville, IN | 23:00 | Amazing jam that begins in heavy funk mode and transitions to a more quiet vibe before shifting into high gear with some serious rock and roll. The jam then breaks into some beautiful, peaceful and textured playing ("HOSE") before rebuilding into a powerful groove. -> into "GTBT." Must-hear. | |
| 1997-08-11 | Noblesville, IN | 16:25 | -> in from "Makisupa." Many of the later '90s versions are extended, but don't carry nearly the same punch as those from the '93 - '96 era. Not here though, this one is like getting teeth extracted, one by one and without novocaine: long and painful. | |
| 1997-08-11 | Noblesville, IN | 13:20 | The jam veers away from the normal structure several times, adding tension and anticipation when it returns to "Antelope." | |
| 1997-08-11 | Noblesville, IN | 9:08 | The band still toying with set placement, here, "Vultures" anchors the second set for the second time, and with great results. While a true appraisal will only coincide with the arrival of a crisper AUD (or SBD!), what IS clear is that Trey has grown comfortable playing within the "confines" of the composition's compact form, his soloing crisp and rich with both discordant and melodic variation, and really impressive phrasing. | |
| 1997-08-11 | Noblesville, IN | 27:17 | Weird jam segment and vocal close. (No B&D.) | |
| 1998-08-02 | Noblesville, IN | 7:26 | Funk groove that sticks close to the "Boogie on" theme and features great contributions from all band members, especially Fishman. | |
| 1998-08-02 | Noblesville, IN | 11:05 | "Manteca"-like jamming, lots of great Page on the B-3, and very strong Mike and Trey. Fun version with a > to "Ghost." | |
| 1998-08-02 | Noblesville, IN | 19:03 | Rock star Page driving the mothership into deep outer space. [Follows the typical format, but with great contributions by Page and Mike. Then after 14:30, the jam breaks into an excellent electro-rock groove wich gradually recedes.] | |
| 1998-08-03 | Noblesville, IN | 20:15 | A "Nancy" double shot, with "Halley's" -> "I Didn't Know." A Mike and Fish led funky, percussive jam initially springs out. From there, at least 3 distinct movements develop in a masterful, wide-ranging opus which includes "A Love Supreme" tease from Page. | |
| 1998-08-03 | Noblesville, IN | 10:26 | A somewhat abbreviated intro leads to a funky, creative jam segment that's longer than you'd guess from the song's timing. "Sunshine of Your Love"-like jamming by Trey towards the end (9:30). | |
| 1998-08-03 | Noblesville, IN | 16:43 | Funky super groove with a lot of "Manteca" teases. Very melodic Trey before an awesome "Manteca" ending. Page rage throughout. One of the strongest versions ever. | |
| 1998-08-03 | Noblesville, IN | 11:34 | Fantastic version that has it all: delicate, intricate playing, a quiet tempered section that builds to a glorious peak, and then an orchestrated downshift concluding with serene, ambient space. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 4:15 | The typically good natured "Makisupa" takes a comedic turn into "Happy Birthday" to celebrate CK5's birthday, replete with "rasta style" playing, a Mike bass solo, humor from Trey and Fish, and a CK5 light solo. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 4:15 | "Happy Birthday" (first version since 9/30/91) to CK5 as the meat of a goofy "Makisupa" sandwich. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 0:45 | "Makisupa" resumes to complete a fun filled birthday sandwich version in honor of CK5. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 10:43 | Extended funk groove. Mike holds it down while Page and Trey play off each other very well. Returns to the "Boogie on" theme at 10 minutes. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 19:08 | An excellent, upbeat and uplifting jam develops beyond "Birds" proper. The jam then gets dark and brooding before -> into "Walk Away." | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 16:26 | Viewed as a groove-based jam, there is a lot of improvisation going on including some great syncopated jamming (which occurs again in the excellent "Suzy" that follows). But compared to versions from 1994 and earlier, there is no radical departure from the basic song structure other than a brief settle. For this period however, it stands out. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 10:05 | Awesome version that Includes a jam based on Stevie Wonder's "I Wish" and a syncopated jam built around Page. | |
| 1999-07-25 | Noblesville, IN | 8:40 | They can encore with this amazing version any time they want! Fantastic climax in the jam, and a short bonus outro-jam! | |
| 1999-07-26 | Noblesville, IN | 9:20 | Standard "Gumbo" jam breaks down into a nice ambient jam. Trey sets some loops with Page adding beautiful piano. Segues nicely into "NICU." | |
| 1999-07-26 | Noblesville, IN | 17:20 | The jam moves beyond the conventional structure at 9:00 into several sections of high quality improvisation. > to "Piper." | |
| 1999-07-26 | Noblesville, IN | 14:06 | Soaring, but essentially a straightforward version has an elongated concluding section with a > to "DwD." | |
| 1999-07-26 | Noblesville, IN | 5:49 | > in from "DwD." This spacey jam is dominated by heavy feedback from Trey. At the very end, Fish starts up the rhythm for "2001," but Mike takes control, leading the band with a -> to "SOAM." | |
| 2000-07-11 | Noblesville, IN | 16:22 | A very cool jam with great Fish and Mike in this upbeat, funky version that transitions into "Chalkdust Torture Reprise." | |
| 2000-07-11 | Noblesville, IN | 2:33 | Fun little ditty, and very unlike big brother "CDT" makes only its second appearance ever, transitioning in through a series of stops at the end of a funky version of "Drowned." The third and final version (so far) of "CDT Reprise" was played as final encore (following "Moby Dick," of course) at this thematic show. | |
| 2000-07-11 | Noblesville, IN | 9:14 | Raging version follows the extremely rare appearance (2nd performance ever) of "Chalk Dust Torture Reprise." | |
| 2000-07-11 | Noblesville, IN | 12:53 | A quintessential version of "2001" that kicks off an all-timer of a second set. No "Moby Dick" teases needed, Trey and Mike are killer in the second jam. | |
| 2000-07-12 | Noblesville, IN | 7:38 | Begins with Trey on the mini keyboard before he locks into a melody on the guitar. | |
| 2000-07-12 | Noblesville, IN | 10:09 | Sure it's all "Type I," but this is a very well played, straight out rocking version. | |
| 2000-07-12 | Noblesville, IN | 13:18 | A typically high octane '00 version with an insanely intense jam between verses settles into quick tempo, intense groove. Things gradually settle down, followed by some quieter play with good Mike/Fish teaming and spacey effects from Page and Trey. | |
| 2003-07-21 | Noblesville, IN | 13:43 | Not way out there, but has some good moments that stretch beyond normal "Stash" (8:45 - 11:45) and a solid finish. | |
| 2003-07-21 | Noblesville, IN | 11:11 | Leaves standard "Birds" behind at about 5:20 and breaks into an up-tempo, upbeat jam that also has moments of a darker sentiment. There's a brief return to "Birds" proper, before Page leads a quiet section that > into "Mike's Song." | |
| 2003-07-21 | Noblesville, IN | 11:24 | Searing hot "Type I" play through 5:00, then the jam settles into some excellent exploratory and rocking play with great percussive action from Fish and Mike. Returning to "Weekapaug," the conclusion has an unusual rave-up ending. | |
| 2003-07-21 | Noblesville, IN | 11:14 | The energy and power start to build at the end of Trey's solo, then he settles everyone back down for a bit before rallying the band into an overdrive finale. | |
| 2003-07-21 | Noblesville, IN | 14:46 | Jam moves on from the typical hard driving standard to some really serene, quiet thoughtful space. With lots of little twists and turns, this one is very improvisational. > to "Tweezer." | |
| 2003-07-22 | Noblesville, IN | 16:49 | Dark monster of a jam. Goes between dark and uplifting segments. Some very nice playing from Trey throughout. Really shows off the strength of the 2.0 era. | |
| 2003-07-22 | Noblesville, IN | 23:10 | Multi-section improvisational jam starts off dark and evil and becomes more rocking and uptempo. The only gripe is wading through 12 minutes of ho-hum "Type I" playing before the good stuff starts. -> to a solid "Free." | |
| 2003-07-23 | Noblesville, IN | 20:32 | Show opener morphs from the standard, sedate outro jam into an intense, multi-faceted jam with an incredible and powerful peaking section. | |
| 2003-07-23 | Noblesville, IN | 15:34 | First post Hiatus performance. Band breaks into a very rhythmic, though not overly percussive jam coming out of "Sally" proper. Mildly funky, this version has a somewhat dark sentiment, and builds energy near the end. | |
| 2003-07-23 | Noblesville, IN | 20:32 | Some beautiful major key jamming at first, a "CYHMK" tease, then it gets a little more dark and intense. There is some very good modulation of intensity as the jam progresses and > to "Coil" with no return to "DwD." | |
| 2003-07-23 | Noblesville, IN | 14:42 | Gets into a nice swinging, upbeat movement at 5:20 which continues until about 9:00 before getting back to "Antelope." Few versions since 1995 get as far removed from the basic "Antelope" jam as this one. | |
| 2004-06-23 | Noblesville, IN | 18:25 | The customary "Gin" jam breaks into a low-key groove which eventually returns to "Gin" to end. | |
| 2004-06-23 | Noblesville, IN | 12:16 | No intro. At first sedate and soothing, the jam grows increasingly dissonant and tension filled, with an almost growly anger to it. Very improvisational version that includes an "NO2" tease. | |
| 2004-06-24 | Noblesville, IN | 7:30 | A rager to open the show! | |
| 2004-06-24 | Noblesville, IN | 17:35 | Nice easy-going rhythmic groove which eventually morphs into a celebratory jam before -> "Rock And Roll." | |
| 2004-06-24 | Noblesville, IN | 12:40 | Extended rocking groove held together by Mike and Fish with Page and Trey adding texture and melody over top. | |
| 2004-06-24 | Noblesville, IN | 9:29 | A stormy and intense version in which Trey and Fish take the mule for an extended ride. | |
| 2004-06-24 | Noblesville, IN | 12:23 | "Type I" version includes a "DwD" jam from 9:10 - 10:25. | |
| 2009-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 10:56 | Standard rendition until the jam takes a turn towards a beatless ambience drenched by Page's synth, which grows loosely percussive and upbeat. > to "Drowned." | |
| 2009-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 9:29 | A settled section follows the standard jam, which leads to some "CYHMK"-like jamming, then some free form improvisation before returning to "Twist" to conclude. | |
| 2009-06-19 | Noblesville, IN | 12:44 | A very good jam eventually segues into a spacey interlude before "2001" kicks in. | |
| 2010-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 9:25 | Very good, upbeat and crescendo oriented jam section. | |
| 2010-08-12 | Noblesville, IN | 5:14 | First appearance of the megaphone since 2/25/97. Also includes sirens at the beginning and end of the song. | |
| 2012-06-28 | Noblesville, IN | 13:50 | The Curtain section is well-executed, with notably strong Mike and Fish. The With jam features great Trey and Page interplay - not exactly call and response, but Trey plays a few licks, then Page responds with thoughts of his own. As the jam develops, they play simultaneously, each offering similar, yet distinct musical collages, while Fish and Mike adeptly keep the rhythm machine chugging along. A solid version start to finish. | |
| 2012-06-28 | Noblesville, IN | 9:37 | The rest of the band, particularly Trey, plays along during Page's solo, and there is some nice interplay between the two. Stepping into the lead, Trey migrates from the melodic to some mildly dissonant, atonal scales near the conclusion of this fine version. | |
| 2012-06-28 | Noblesville, IN | 10:12 | Nice departure from the crescendo oriented "BOTTs" of '10 - '11. This jam begins in "plinko" mode, modulates to a great Page-led section (very unusual for "BOTT"), and ends unfinished with some dissonant space. -> to "HYHU." | |
| 2012-06-28 | Noblesville, IN | 12:25 | Delicate and beautifully played at first, the jam has growing intensity, and then leaves the "Waves" ranch altogether with several movements that skirt around the perimeter of "Waves" proper. Unfinished with > to "Bug." | |
| 2012-06-29 | Noblesville, IN | 14:45 | High quality jam develops that is dark and brooding at first, but grows increasingly upbeat and intense. > to "Sand." | |
| 2012-06-29 | Noblesville, IN | 10:19 | Coming out of a very good "Disease," the jam is a tight, rhythmic groove with "Walk This Way" and "Weekapaug" teases from Trey. Segues into "Twist." | |
| 2012-06-29 | Noblesville, IN | 8:07 | > in from "Rift." Despite its brevity, this version has some fantastic and unusual improvisation and includes a "Twist" quote and an "On Broadway" tease from Trey. With a -> to "Fluffhead," this is a great, old-school triple combo. | |
| 2016-06-26 | Noblesville, IN | 14:36 | Quickly maneuvers into a relaxed zone with Trey on MuTron, then climbs into blissful major key at Page's insistence and then beautifully slides into space. Page's clavinet really does some work at the end. | |
| 2021-08-06 | Noblesville, IN | 12:02 | The jam follows a fairly typical funky and crunchy path until around 8:00, when lift off is achieved. A strong peak ensues before downshifting to close. | |
| 2021-08-06 | Noblesville, IN | 14:14 | The actual "Sand" proper is taken at a slower and milkshake-thick pace, and the band luxuriates in the usual "Sand" jam until about the 7:30 mark, when Trey hits on a particularly gorgeous major-key riff and the band follows him to a very pretty space. Page's work on the keys and Mike's rock-steady accompaniment are what to look out for here. Pretty strong peak at the end, too. | |
| 2021-08-06 | Noblesville, IN | 27:07 | The first of the two monster jams upon which the reputation of 8/6/21 II sits. Immediately moves into a more low-key zone out of the usual jam, with Page stepping to the forefront on both electric piano and synths and Mike adding some real hip-shaking funkiness to the proceedings. Trey finds a new key, but the funkiness stays intact as Fish kicks into a new gear, and then Trey finds a really neat riff and the band catches on as the jam molds itself around that tropically flavored riff. The jam grows in power and then moves into another danceable segment at Mike's urging, with Trey moving to his effects, then Page goes major key and the band dances around "Mind Left Body" once again before hitting a superb peak and heading home. Absolutely majestic version. | |
| 2021-08-06 | Noblesville, IN | 23:31 | Why we travel from points far and wide to Noblesville, Indiana. Pick a timestamp. 6.37 finds Trey alighting upon a lovely, carefree vibe. Jump to 10.35, and the band is moving through a passage of gnarly, tripped-up disco funk. 12.45 finds Trey (and listen to Page!) working his pedals like it's 1995. Or something. 15.15 features Trey shearing sound, the band deep in psychedelic play that makes recent Melts blush (the focus / the cohesion). Pick a point and it just might be your favorite .... Before the band, taking a victory lap, returns to simply sing us back home. | |
| 2021-08-07 | Noblesville, IN | 16:13 | Makes a significant departure from "Stash" proper into largely nonformulaic bliss, save for a minute-long rock section from 11:00 - 12:00. Trey's ascending swells at 12:30 are a highlight, after which a few delayed riffs and a push for -> "NICU" from Fish ultimately leads back home at 14:30. | |
| 2021-08-07 | Noblesville, IN | 21:54 | Trey and Mike lead the band into a muscular groove out of the usual "Everything's Right" jam, which gets darker and nastier as Page goes to his synths and Fish switches up the beat. Trey finds a new key and the jam gets weird and alien-sounding in that Summer 2021 way we all know and love, with Page on piano keeping things somewhat grounded, then Fish snaps into a brand new groove and they build to a neat peak. The jam then collapses into an atonal free-jazz zone, Fish really enjoying himself, before the band goes back to "Everything's Right" proper. | |
| 2021-08-07 | Noblesville, IN | 11:05 | Mainly distinguished by Trey fiddling with his effects before Mike moves things into the blissful upbeat hose zone, but once they get there the band really guns the engines and builds up the jam quite nicely. Trey hits on a cool repeating note pattern, and the jam peaks well, before returning to "Crosseyed" proper, with Fish throwing in some of his own effects for fun. Dies away, then > into a nifty reprise of "What's The Use?", played the song before. | |
| 2021-08-08 | Noblesville, IN | 12:22 | A neat first-set surprise, Trey mixing in some soupy effects right away, then making a surprise move to more upbeat waters, with Page complementing him nicely on electric piano. Fish really does some work in this warm and anthemic jam segment, including a particularly ferocious drum fill at the 8:30 mark. Neatly slides back into "Mike's Song" proper to finish up. No second jam, but a pretty darn good first jam. | |
| 2021-08-08 | Noblesville, IN | 3:30 | The start of a wild segue/jam sequence, as right out of the song proper Trey -> directly into "Makisupa Policeman". | |
| 2021-08-08 | Noblesville, IN | 0:56 | -> out of "Twist" as part of a wild segue/jam sequence. Trey swaps in "Sally" (as in "Sneakin' Sally") into the lyrics. | |
| 2021-08-08 | Noblesville, IN | 0:56 | Trey sharply swerves out of "Makisupa Policeman" back into "Twist", which the band briefly plays before -> back into "Makisupa Policeman". | |
| 2021-08-08 | Noblesville, IN | 8:31 | -> back out of "Twist". Trey throws in some verbal and musical quotes from songs played earlier in the set. Page fires up a sample from "Martian Monster", and the band vamps on a combination "Makisupa"/"Martian Monster" groove, then the jam gets darker and more powerful, with a blast of feedback auguring this dark turn. Trey stirs up the witches' brew, with Mike adding some nice color, as the band rips into a fiery jam reminiscent of the heavy-duty 12/31/15 "Twist", before collapsing somewhat anticlimactically into "Twist" proper. | |
| 2021-08-08 | Noblesville, IN | 1:25 | -> out of the "Makisupa Policeman" jam. An amusingly anticlimactic end to a really strong and weird piece of music from a really strong and weird show. |
