Notable performances

3. Slow Jam 1 — Highly improvisational and groovy, the jam starts out with percussive guitar work which morphs into some Ice V teasing and Iron Lung quotes. The jam moves into a psychedelic fury which quickly chills out and gets real spacey as Stu picks up the flute. Building up from a guitar, drums and flute trio, a heavy rocking and fast paced jam emerges, which simply rages. After a few minutes, Cavs shifts to a half time beat which transitions smoothly back into the song. “Well that took an unexpected turn” says Joey.
16. The Dripping Tap — A bloodcurdling scream, a hypertensive first jam, a hellish itch, and a Pill to cure all ills; this show-closing jam vessel travels far and wide with its bodily imagery. The Gizzy Boys’ rhythm section lock a tight grip on “drip drip” while Stu, Amby, and Joey rip (especially during the coda jam, holy “Tap”)!
