Kinda spooky China Doll coming out of Space. Never much cared for this song, but for some reason this version has some unusual instrumental in the first half that reminds me of Pink Floyd.

Beatiful China Doll out of a creepy space and very schizophrenic Drums. Never Trust a Women is shot to hell the first quarter of the tune, with the drummer boys not really getting into the right groove. Maybe there were monitor issues and they couldn't hear eachother, idk, but the beginning of NTW was crap, which is kind of a downer, since it came out of a really sweet, allbeit, short Eyes. the GDTRFB was rockin from start to end and transition into A&A was tighter then normal for this period. The Sugar Mag was standard jamming with a nice little rocked out solo by jerry before the Sushine Daydream.

I said this in a comment on a previous show, but i agree with Perrin, glad they ended up retiring Day job, six more after this. I used to really dig the tune, but after hearing it a bunch of times, it just never comes together. Giving ever Benefit of the Doubt to the jolly fat man and his muse hunter, I don't think the song ever ended up sounding the way the two of them thought it would.

Despite the Never Trust screw up, this show is fire, grab it.

ummm stagger lee and cassidy are both men soooo...

i liked the good times, whether it was a screw up or not, i think they were trying it from a different angle, maybe didnt work so great but there's 41 other shows if you want to hear the same old way.
