Jam Chart for Hey Stranger (3 entries)
| Date | City | Timing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022-12-29 | New York, NY | 6:19 | Debut. |
| 2025-06-28 | Austin, TX | 9:44 | A song very much of its time (check the excellent 12/29/22 debut), this is the first version showcasing the band extending its runtime. Perfectly at home between canonical "Reba" and nu-canon "Plasma," this is next generation material. No song > improvisation, the jamming is organic as play from any "Moma," inventive and musical ideas rising from the fabric of the structured material. Trey's strumming after the seven-minute mark sets off Fish and the play becomes forceful, ultimately leading to the fiercest play to date. |
| 2025-07-25 | Saratoga Springs, NY | 12:20 | Caps a strong Summer tour for "Hey Stranger" during which it was further cemented as a first set staple with a jam that stretches the form and features jazzy Mike/Trey interplay before a sharp conclusion. |
