This is a great August 93 show with sharp playing and improvisation and teases popping up all over the place. You should not hesitate to listen to the entire show, but if you're just hunting for noteworthy performances check out the Bag, Reba, Chalk Dust, Split Open and Melt, Landlady/Tweezer,...

THE GOOD: Although outshined by the following night, there is a lot of good in this one, especially in the way of eccentric jamming. The early first-set Reba has a wonderful DEG-inspired building jam and a good 4 minutes of Hey-jamming. In Guelah, Trey jumps back and forth amongst keys...

Another audience recording from the Santana tour. A little boomy again. Well, this set is pretty much all Rift material except for the end. Begining with a rough start on Rift. Page comes in singing early and throws Fishman off his beat. There is lots of digital noise from the DAT present...

Caught amid a swath of official releases from August '93, I feel like this beauty gets unfairly overlooked by many Phans. Fire up Relisten and put this one on, cuz there's plenty to love right out the gate with an original-intro AC/DC Bag that jams out for a tiny, uncharacteristic moment. With no...

Beautiful opener. AC/DC bag is one of my sleeper favorites. Maybe one of the better openers of 93 Summer (can I edit this later if I need to adjust that opinion after more research?). Anyway, moving on the Reba has a nice vibe control at 2:36. Also later in Reba has an amazing amount of jamming...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1993-08-12 • The Landlady (3:10) Set 2 Noteworthy
An unusual "The Landlady"/"Tweezer" combination, with both songs weaving back and forth.
1993-08-12 • The Landlady (0:22) Set 2 Noteworthy
> in from "Tweezer." A few measures of "The Landlady" are played at the end of "Tweezer."
1993-08-12 • Tweezer (12:20) Set 2 Noteworthy
Get Back signals, a Simpsons signal, and several measures of "Landlady."
1993-08-12 • Tweezer (0:34) Set 2 Noteworthy
> in from a brief reprise of "The Landlady" to complete this song combination.
1993-08-12 • Possum (10:24) Set 2 Noteworthy
Like 8/8/93, another improvisational version. "Possum" isn't exactly a "Type II" vehicle, but there are brief moments in this one that come close. Includes a "Tweeprise" tease, a solid low-key start and a rocking conclusion to the jam.
1993-08-12 • Reba (15:20) Set 1 Noteworthy
Syncopated grooving that departs the "norm" and features a fun, intense breakdown, with truly remarkable full-band exploration, a la "David Bowie." The playing almost gets pushed back to "Reba" territory before collapsing totally into improvisational "Bomb-Facotry-esque" wonkiness.
Excellent version that weaves back and forth, back and forth between super tight but typical "SOAM" playing and exploratory jaunts.
1993-08-12 • AC/DC Bag (7:40) Set 1
The old intro is played although it was largely abandoned after 1988. Odd little outro jam tacked on to the back as well.
