Great to see that the band hasn't taken a breather show as of yet. We're now on five consecutive heaters. Having never seen the boys in Texas, but remembering the average/below average 2016 Dallas shows, I was cautious in my expectations. Just like the four shows that proceeded it, this one is...

Absolute beast of a show - Trey had a few sour notes here and there, especially early in the evening, but if such is the price to be paid as trade-off for a night of ambitious, explorative, über-creative type 2 jams, blended with high-energy bustouts (the Set I “Moonage Daydream” closer...

Kicking off what has seemingly become a trend in 2025 of extended "2001" style intros, what we get here is the first truly significant departure from rote play since 8/16/97. A noticeably slower tempo in the "Landlady" section still slightly mars these modern outings but the relatively clean performance and extra love shown to the intro demand our attention.

Trey switches key for the jam, and the band responds accordingly. Around 4:10 Trey leans into, and repeats a phrase that works to serve as the foundation for a rockin', confident jam, which finds all four musicians contributing in equal measure. The return to "555" is somewhat abrupt, and leads to a clunky conclusion, but, overall, this is an exciting version.

As yet another outsized, aquatic crimson portal opens up, the jam begins in a swirling rhythmic push. This platform remains steady until play breaks into spacier territory around the 11 minute mark. Mellowing space then forms up into darker territory, and oscillates back and forth between brighter and darker textures/moods. Then, the band begins another push towards an anthemic zone, executing a steady climb towards a bright-sized peak, before after-burning into introspective textural territory and > "Monsters".
