Well, what I found lacking in the prior show certainly appeared in this one. Soil is jammed well right out of the gate. Back half of LTLO gets interesting - sounds like the real four-pack Spafford, with all members doing what they do best
The Jam to start the second set is very good. Better than the ones that have opened the show, IMO. The jam features a thematic, blissy build up and subsequent peak from Mike, and gradually flows into Sham Time. Mike gives this version a little extra mustard than what we're used to.
I can't get into Mike's tone of guitar after the "steady climb" line. Not his fault, I'm just so accustomed to (and in love with) Brian's tone for this part. Regardless, Cory shines in this (very) solid version.
This carries over into It's a Bunch, where Cory, Jordan, and Nick find a sick groove while Mike takes a more conservative stance on the jam, at least at first. Eventually he jumps on the groove the others have started, before they all slide into a set-closing Lonely.
