spreaditround SET 1: Tube: couldn't pick a better opener than this tune right here. Short and sweet. >

Runaway Jim: Nice little jam here this early in the set and the show has tons of energy.

Ya Mar: Nice little jam.

Horn:Standard.

Limb By Limb:at 8:20 Trey hits a subtle loop and the jam takes a cool direction. However this only last for about a minute or so and then they cruise back into familiar territory for this song with high energy jamming. Salad jammin one that I would likely revisit.

On Your Way Down: This tune was made for Page's vocal range, just perfect.

Sleeping Monkey: awesome dedication, does anybody know this young woman? >

Wilson:Rages!

First set summary: not a lot to revisit here outside of the Limb by Limb. The Relisten app source of the AKG480's sounds GREAT.

SET 2: NICU: Only opened set two three times before, 11.30.97, 12.13.97 and 12.31.98. Trey is having a blast with many Leo callouts. ->

David Bowie:Huge loops in the intro. Sinister and evil. The loops that kick off the jam are SICK. Oddly enough this one goes major key for a couple of minutes in the midst of the jam. Pretty odd for a 1.0 Bowie. Not a huge fan of the ending coda in this one, feels rushed. I will say I am a huge fan of this one being in the two hole in the second set, great placement.

The Squirming Coil I love the placement of this coming up off of that strong version of David Bowie. there's actually a very cool little jam in this version definitely has replay value! >

Prince Caspian trey's vocals are very shaky coming out of the gate here. This is an incredible version, absolutely soaring! trey just rips this one to shreds. >

Rock and Roll: Standard, huge loops >

Also Sprach Zarathustra Absolutely brilliant. Outer space and beyond. Has the DIE DIE DIE effect. >

Frankenstein: standard >

Julius: Standard

ENCORE: Character Zero: Standard

Second set summary: there are some really high points in the second set such as David Bowie and 2001 and I really liked squirming coil but they just failed to take this to the next level and had ample opportunity to do so. As such I would rate this show as a 3.75 out of five.

Before Monkey, Trey and Mike pulled a woman out of the crowd who had been calling for Sleeping Monkey; the band then played the song for her.
