My first show. 13 years later and this one still fucks. Such a good night and one that would change my life ever since.
This one has THE blow out HBB right? Forgot about this show
As incredible as the HBB is, I think I’d pick The Bottom Half for jam of the show. Both are in the mix for greatest jam ever for my tastes.
That Padge > Bottom 1/2 is just pure heat. But Jake and BB on that Bottom 1/2 peak is stupid good and tthe way they melt out of that proggy jam right into How Many More Times…c’m
