Review by Divided_Stash
Chalk Dust Torture: high energy longer type 1 version
Bouncing Around The Room: standard
Wolfman’s Brother: jam starts with a funky breakdown and continues with the usual early 3.0 buildup. Nothing too special or exploratory but a nice first set groove
Divided Sky: flawless compositions and soaring Trey. Really solid
Heavy Things: standard
Walk Away: 80 show gap
Wilson: slightly extended middle segment, other than that pretty normal
Tube: longest 3.0 rendition until 2016, awesome funk to start but they start to break away from the Tube theme a bit, then quickly get it back, play around with some effects and finish the song. Page clav heaven
Alaska: standard
David Bowie: some troubles in the composed sections, which actually leads straight into the jam. Typical type 1 build and peak Bowie to end the first set
Down With Disease: first type 2 excursion to start the second set. Starts with the normal pre breakaway soloing and when they do Page switches to some spacey synths and piano. Trey uses an effect heard regularly in the late 90s and the jam is rolling along with Fish throwing in some cowbell. After a few minutes Trey starts
Free: standard
Guyute: played well
Piper: more type 2 jamming here. Once they break from the Piper theme, a buildup begins that leads to a nice peak but it's over quickly and they move on to a quieter groove with Trey whale calls and as they quiet down even more they find a transition into
When The Circus Comes: standard
Harry Hood: great buildup and an extended outro. You can feel good about this hood
The Squirming Coil: gorgeous Page solo
You Enjoy Myself: sick bass+drums
Grind: 65,442
Hold Your Head Up: standard
Bike: 95 show gap
Hold Your Head Up: Fish's laughing at the end is ridiculous
Loving Cup: raging closer
Solid show for early 2009. Some fun tunes, decent jamming in DWD and Piper, and the encore is hilarious. This is a 5.5/10 for me
