Spring tour, folks. Happy feelings all around, bringing the sun to Seattle. The guys seem extra cheerful this time of year. Very inspired jams; if this is the tour opener, then we’re bound for the thick of it this time around.

The mellow jam in Sand is super sweet. This might be the best Train so far from 4.0. Halfway through, Page and Trey start like an 80s synth jam, so choice. Tube might be real short here, but damn it hits hard. Wolfman is a bona fide party.

Guys, I don’t think we’ll ever get a Blaze On on 4/20. We have to accept it now to prevent future disappointment. It’s better this way. This one is really fun though. Awesome segue -> Golden Age. Fish is def the highlight here (check out the massive cowbell action at 7-9 minutes in!!). The jam carries on fairly type-1 like, but gets real screwy at the end with a weird octave-malfunction-stop-go jam. Very fun stuff -> Mind is extremely solid, if not a little average. IAWITW -> Ghost is just a nonstop adventure.

Very little veggies all in all, solid jams everywhere. Fish’s input is stunning, so many little nooks and crannies in his playing. There are a couple nuggets throughout the show where Trey and Mike are copying each other, love the connection. Awesome stuff here. Check out Sand, Train, and the Blaze -> Golden -> Mind. Tour’s lookin good!
