[Originally posted on Thu, 16 Dec 1999] I have some mixed feelings about this show. I got there at a perfect time, about 10 minutes before set 1. When the lights went down, I have to admit, I was relatively sure we were getting a First Tube opener, because the tour had been semi-predictable...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1999-12-15 Free (16:11) Set 2
Jam starts in typical fashion, but then Trey hits the keyboards for an extended and very different version.
