Unless of course someone would like to add to it.  I've noticed a slight lull since the disappearance of Dark Star.  So this is just to lighten things up a bit.  eh?

Saw them live around '92 or so - unquestionably the best non-Dead show of my life!  IIRC, they played about 1.5 hours and did maybe 4 or 5 songs.  Amazing stuff.  The sad part?  It was at a town carnival.

Yeah, I'll say I was slightly annoyed to open this thread out of curiosity to find it is apparently pointless.
 
21:32 minutes of pure musicianship... great.  What does that refer to?  No information is given.  Who is this thread directed to... psychics?

In this day and age, it ain't hard to  find (http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:d9fyxqt5ldhe target=_blank) what you're looking for...
 
Why all the hostility?  Let's just enjoy some good music.

Not sure why one would want to throw in a few lines from Little Drummer Boy there, but hey: the man can play. The big piece of rubber under the strings, close to the bridge, notwithstanding.

That Little Drummer Boy thing kinda blew me away.  I've been playing that for years as a solo piece and I am sometimes inclined to a part of it into a solo in a song.  I had never heard anyone else play it before.
