Footnotes

Floodlights - Solid grooves that yield to a surprisingly energetic conclusion.

Floes - After stronger-than-usual intro and mid-verse jams, the main jam is an ethereal beauty. It stays pretty close to Floes territory, but pushes that space further when we’ve seen it go yet, and foreshadows the more expansive fall versions.

Mr. Don - Similar to 9/18/99 in that the jam doesn’t break new ground, but is famously well-executed with a famously strong ending.

Voices Insane - A fantastic bliss jam emerges from Voices, shifting into more tense type two beginning around 10:30-11. It builds to a strong uncomposed peak before an uncoventionally energetic segue into Spectacle.
