The band dedicated this show to Allen Woody on his birthday, and they delivered a red-hot performance that surely had Big Al smiling down on the band. "Gilded Splinters" is a force of nature here, bursting with scorching slide riffs and growling, menacing vocals from Gregg. "Revival" had an extended jam with some nice interplay between Derek and Warren, and "End of the Line" was a fitting tribute to Woody, with a jam at the end that lifts off into the stratosphere and leaves the crowd roaring for more!

There were also excellent versions of "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed" and "No One To Run With" among others, but this night belongs to an exceptional 1-2 punch of "Rocking Horse" and "Desdemona," with both songs hitting new heights. Check out the amazing new jam in the second half of "Rocking Horse," it is sure to take your breath away. "Desdemona" soars on a jazzy groove, with both Derek and Warren taking creative, inventive solos and Gregg singing his heart out. A must-hear show - Oteil was amazing as always!!
