This show is awesome. Lots of bluegrass goodness, didn’t realize it was the first show on this leg with the Rev. The Simple is just massive and worth a listen.

Dude, nice timing! I was just listening to the Mike’s Song > Simple yesterday but didn’t have time to post about it. Def one of the better Simples I’ve heard. I’m digging all the bluegrass in this setlist too. Think it’s about time I go through all of November, 1994.

Getting back on the review train here.

Simple… :open_mouth:

This show does have a lot of bluegrass, so if you’re not into it just check out the Simple. It’s fucking wild. It goes through this very abstract/jazzy jam that is very unique and clocks in around 30 min.

Love the opening combo of Sample Foam, a really good Stash and then sweet sweet Simple, this one is out there :astonished:

Awesome show!
