Julius

, comment by MikeBrez
MikeBrez This is the best Julius ever in my opinion, and I've listened to a lot of them over the years. It was my 7th show and the night I really "got it". The rest of the show is incredible with an evil YEM and perfect a cappella transition into Sleeping Monkey, a dark and blistering Antelope, a Tasty Fog, a great My Friend, and more. The Julius is one of my favorites, however. They open the 2nd set with it and it just keeps going and going. Most Julius versions go back into the "don't take another step" way too soon for my liking. This one could've ended multiple times, but they just drive it even harder. It's so intense that Fishman yells a few times, Page bangs on the keys, and Trey is just ripping it. The whole place was just seriously getting down and boogying! I've played this Julius for a lot of people over the years, and everyone agrees how amazing it is. I know some people who say that horns are a requirement for a good Julius, and I can't argue with that, but please give this one a listen. It'll change your mind. I've wanted a soundboard or better copy of this show for years. I've had multiple audience sources, and none really capture the amazing nature of this night at Dane County Coliseum. It definitely changed my life for the better.
