*After Page finishes a lengthy and beautiful piano solo, Trey begins his part of the "muel duel" by playing a nice
classical riff (20 seconds or so). He then pauses and plays a few heavy metal licks that then go into "Ha Ha Ha"
(the band follows).

**After "Ha Ha Ha," Trey does a bit more of his guitar solo, which is followed by the "Russian" dance segment.

Moma-starts with a little "king of the road?" tease.same as before they play Gin at riverport later in the week.they come out hard with the SLOW funk.played really well.

Jim-at first, the jam doesnt wander much, but then finds a nice subtle funk to hang out in.solid version, but nothing too crazy.gets a little spacey towards the end, too.

Bouncing-Stash-the stash is another standard version, but i like it.

My Soul-Page really rips his solo apart on this one!

Taste-Golgi-not a fan of taste, but thought this version was pretty tight.

Cup-now Trey gets his chance to rip his solo up!cool that they threw in another one after golgi.

Wolfman-starts funky (as always).they keep it funky for the entire time, pretty much.they do bring it down for about one minute, and then slam right back into the funk.they do it rather nicely as well.

2001-i get excited when they start to play 2001.then i kinda get bored.same goes with sand.it is OFFICIAL.these two songs are in the same catagory for me now.even on paper, i fool myself into thinking" cool.2001"...they are good to hear live, but on disc, doesnt hold up well.

Scent-HaHaHa-Scent-here is a big drop in the show's momentum.i am not a fan of scent.Trey doesnt do anything anymore with his part of the "duel".i used to like the duel segment, and when trey would play the actually outro solo to the duel, but that wasnt pulled off nicely in quite some time.also, i love HaHaHa, but this, too, has not been played well since 95.

Slave-nice, soaring version.

Chalk-and another tune thrown in for good measure.pretty rockin'.

Zero-good walkin' to the car tune.

despite the scent of a mule, i like this show alot.
no real big jams, but played real tight.
i give it a
B+

no big jams?  the wolfmans is HUGE!  21+ minutes... and its not just funk... yes, its based around the funk, but this fucker rages!

no offense 4bn, but that SBD is the reason why i had to seek out this schoeps source.
there are a ton of skips, static and pops, not to mention a good chunk of Runaway Jim
that is cut on it.
