After listening through both shows I think that the first set of 1/20 is the best set of the run.

havent re-listened to 1/20 yet or heard 1/21 yet, but i can speak for enjoying friday's first set much more than the second.  not that the second set was bad by any means, i just found the first to be stronger, more dynamic.  booth, rocker, and conduit rocked.  even enjoyed the passing placement.  and fir was perty good, too.

you know the last little bit in part I of fir?   They went into the jam BEFORE playing that, then went into it after the jam and went into part II

I definitely noticed this at the show, have they done this before?  It worked pretty well.

Se, I like jumping straight into those huge SOARING chords of part II right after the jam.  My favorite part of Fir.  But this was pretty cool. Just this once.

I now fully agree with this statement.  That Conduit is so damn good!!

I'm a big fan of DBK, The Linear and Ringo. And when that is 75% of the set, well, I love it. The Conduit stew was up there. I think I liked DBK's 2nd jam and The Linear stew a little more. Just my personal tastes.

Those were my favorites leaving the show as well, Mal.

I'm trying to work that out right now, I'll ask a few of my coworkers and see if I can jog the answer out of my brain. I know I've heard it and recognize the movements, it's just escaping me. In what era were you a kid? That might help narrow it down!

I've got to add that to the setlist file. Similar to what he did on Jam Cruise. I thought I had made note of that, but maybe I forgot.

DBK is fucking BACK.  Seriously,  if they keep it up like this and Clifton Park,  DBK will likely be the jam vehicle of 2012.

IMHO the 9/10/11 DBK trumps clifton parks, but either way, your right, they have been playing some monster DBK's lately

Oh see, I haven't heard the 9/10 DBK.  All I know is, DBK was fairly standard from around '08 to fall '11.  Clifton Park was the first I'd seen in around 30 shows, and it was the first one I heard in a while that had me going nuts.  Listening to this DBK confirms that they're back in the swing of this tune, as this jam is straight fire.

9/10 had a really nice stew that golden years by david bowie sung by BB in it, had possibly the best DBK solo i've heard by BB, and then had a really nice funky stew before they closed it out

its pretty crazy that i've seen monster DBK's in 3 straight shows, i'm not complaining though :wook:

just listened to the UMLive last night-- this is one of the best shows I've heard in some time, especially set 1. (Conduit Stew--wow, just wow... Tribute jam sure wasn't anything to sneeze at either)

This Fir jam is a fuckin dance party.  Pony is throwing that dirty bass line down.  Has that signature UM dance party sound.  One of my favorite jams of the year, so far.
