Footnotes

Crystal Ball - Equipment difficulties force the band to jam out the third ever Crystal Ball, well before the song was ever a regular jam vehicle. The band departs the type one territory after a few minutes, and Magner crafts an excellent soundscape. A few minutes later, Sammy leads a tribal breakdown, after which the jam settles back into trance. Barber reemerges, and leads the jam back into Crystal Ball.

7-11 - Another Magner-led dance party to emerge from the early 7-11. It sounds something like a Boop middle before settling into a more regular progression. It reaches a sweet full-band crescendo which sounds like it could lead to a high-energy segue into Floes, but the band is instead forced to break down to ambience before completing the segue.

Floes - Could conceivably be classified as type 1.75, as everyone except Sammy is doing something atypical from Floes. Sammy keeps the jam grounded, but the rest of the band explores a unique and tense theme.
