The Live Review:
2/18/17: Lazy Days opener.
2/18/17: Great off-rhythm keys solo from Adam during the opener.
2/18/17: Meanwhile In the Gods
2/18/17: Meanwhile trails off into a murky jam. Liking the sound of this. Neal picking over Adam's synth.
2/18/17: Sort of shuffling jam happening now. Neal leading.
2/18/17: Slowly building intensity.
2/18/17: On-a-dime transition into a funk space.
2/18/17: This is great. Sounds like a proper song, sans lyrics.
2/18/17: Another quick turn leads to a fade-out and the end of the jam.
2/18/17: > Tulsa Yesterday
2/18/17: Short version with a great -> California Hymn.
2/18/17: Neat shuffly jam growing out of the end of California Hymn.
2/18/17: Sharp piano chords from Adam as the jam gets deconstructed a little bit.
2/18/17: Some weird chording now building up some energy.
2/18/17: Blue Star Woman next.
2/18/17: Slinky piano riff running throughout.
2/18/17: Blue Star Woman just busted into a neat almost-funk jam. Curious if this is part of the 'real' song or just live improv.
2/18/17: Guess we'll find out when the new album comes out.
2/18/17: Mini-jam wraps up. > Serves Me Right To Suffer.
2/18/17: A few CR harmonica breaks during this tune.
2/18/17: Great, blues-jammy take on that tune. Forever Is the Moon is next.
2/18/17: Leave My Guitar Alone will round out the first set.
2/18/17: End set. Liked the new tune, the set overall was a bit...umm...song-y. Meanwhile > Tulsa -> California Hymn was great, though.
2/18/17: S2 opens with New Cannonball Rag.
2/18/17: Neal leading the charge into a raucous Cannonball jam.
2/18/17: Adam taking over now with a pitch-shifter-heavy solo.
2/18/17: Jam fraying a little around the edges in a good way.
2/18/17: -> Tomorrow's Blues.
2/18/17: Adam just laid down a particularly great synth solo.
Watching CR talk about the Fare Thee Well shows and give props to Trey was pretty great. SYNTHESIS
2/18/17: Long pause after Tomorrow's Blues. Reflections On a Broken Mirror next.
2/18/17: Great solo from Neal in Reflections. Saturday Night in Oak Grove LA follows as a brief boogie stopover.
2/18/17: Love the backing vocals on Try It Baby.
2/18/17: Vibration and Light Suite. Slow and loose start.
2/18/17: Driving jam at first.
2/18/17: Adam freaking out over the beat.
2/18/17: Neal taking over now with a very Floyd-sounding tone.
2/18/17: Call and response guitar from CR and Neal now.
2/18/17: Rolling funk jam now. Tony holding it down.
2/18/17: Neal using the wah pedal to great effect.
2/18/17: Fade into an ambient space. -> Narcissus.
2/18/17: Set keeps rolling with Rosalee. Seems to have a bit more of a funk feel to it than usual.
2/18/17: End set.
2/18/17: Great opening to the first set, great close to the second set. The middle was a bit more songy and predictable.
2/18/17: Though, Cannonball > Tomorrow's Blues was great, as always, and the debut (maybe?) of Blue Star Woman was fun.
2/18/17: Loving the monster Vibration and Light Suite.
2/18/17: Catfish John encore, by the way.
