The guitar solo in the first jam made me weep. Great sound and I love that parts of this were recorded at a venue called “The Wook Nook” https://kendallstreetcompany.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-2528 Apr 2026 15:13 +0000at://did:plc:dw4evkdzyrygjfj3vevkhnnl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkkuqcnwdc2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetrailhead.bsky.social/post/3mkidtsiye22jThey can reach far past jamband enjoyers. Wish they didn't do Dead covers bc they really don't rotate on the Jerry/Trey axis. But Bird Song is great-Reminds me of Other Ones 98 versions w/ Dave Ellis. Anyway, this would've been a hit around my upstate college town. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilmd4_aN88A [contains quote post or other embedded content]27 Apr 2026 15:05 +0000at://did:plc:dw4evkdzyrygjfj3vevkhnnl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkidtsiye22jhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetrailhead.bsky.social/post/3mki76jbfq22kNew favorite band.
