[WhatstheUse?]

Birds jam!  Have Mercy!

[sunrisevt]

Please.

[Hicks]

Page solo in Heavy Things?  That's not normal, right. 

I called Hood after Miss You before they started it.  I did not, however, anticipate Have Mercy. 

[PIE-GUY]

Have Mercy. That is all. Also, see me in the dizzunk thread

They did the Page solo during Heavy Things in Charleston too

Wish Have Mercy had been a bit more reggae-grooved, and tbh it still makes me mad Trey stopped playing it on 7/15/00 whenever I hear it... but was that a new verse?  Not sure I'd heard that one before?

"Time is running out
We need no woman not to cry no child
Help us
who's going to love us
and guide us
we pray jah man"

It's not a verse in the OG.  Maybe from a live version or something.

Page solos in Heavy Things have been pretty regular afaik for the past few years now.  I remember he did it at SPAC recently-ish.

Dogs opener was awesome, and the Ghost was great.... Fishman even added some flair to the beat by going 5/23/00 with the hi-hat!


this Disease is mighty impressive though... man!

[VDB]

Mega Birds. Disease was big and peaky.

Great words! I'm impressed. Especially seeing as you're in VEGAS SEEING PHISH!!!

I'm still mad about that too!  (though mostly because the phrase I wrote on my setlist pad about it was misinterpreted and cost me a scoring opportunity)
