This show is an all-out, balls-to-the-wall rage fest. From Trey’s first solo in Runaway Jim to Rocky Top this whole show just explodes. If there’s one awkward moment, it’s going from the ferocious Bowie to If I Could. But, the interplay between Page and Trey that goes down during the end of If I Could makes up for that moment. The Stash is great, the Mango is great, It’s Ice has that 93-94 fast-paced breakdown driven by Page, then smokin versions of Tela, Julius, and Suzy. Everything in the second set is awesome and TMWSIY>Avenu>TMWSIY is always a personal favorite of mine. This is a great show…go out and get you some!
