Jam Chart for shows in the city of Grand Rapids, MI (19 entries)
| Date | Song | City | Timing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 8:50 | Jam gets well beyond "Jim" into some interesting exploration. It's August '93, what else would you expect? | |
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 8:36 | A wacky but improvisational outro jam occurs, including a "YEM"-like vocal jam. | |
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 11:31 | Insane, tension-filled, extremely improvisational "Stash." This is a vicious animal. Totally awesome! | |
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 12:14 | The 1st jam includes a unique repeated riff from Trey and Mike. 2nd jams in 1993 were often a bit odd, even bizarre. That description fits here, as the 2nd jam is very improvisational, but also unconventional, including "Games Without Frontiers" vocal quotes from Mike. | |
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 11:49 | Much of the jam is decidedly "Type II" and unsettled in nature, but the return to typical "Weekapaug" at the end is quality as well. | |
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 9:31 | Nimble and delicate piano action from Page. Then Trey cranks the energy up several notches with blistering blues work. | |
| 1993-08-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 10:38 | A jam on the Simpons signal and lots of gnarly, improvisational stuff including rhythm and tempo changes in a semi-evil jam. | |
| 1994-11-14 | Grand Rapids, MI | 7:37 | Another evil sounding outro jam. | |
| 1994-11-14 | Grand Rapids, MI | 11:44 | Fish gets the intensity so cranked up during Page's turn that Trey only needs a match to blow this one up. Instead, he adds the flame thrower. | |
| 1994-11-14 | Grand Rapids, MI | 5:34 | > "Lawn Boy", this fun and spirited version retains elements of the Page "standard", resulting in a unique mashup of sorts while, at times, radically altering "Cavern's" set composition. | |
| 1994-11-14 | Grand Rapids, MI | 25:50 | 3rd "Big" '94 "Bowie." One of the most exploratory and improvisational versions ever. Includes some wild and crazy interaction with the audience. | |
| 1994-11-14 | Grand Rapids, MI | 20:31 | Great jam! | |
| 1996-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 15:19 | Mike really shines in this great version. | |
| 1998-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 12:32 | Jam starts off with some funky Clavinet work by Page before Trey sends the jam into an ambient soundscape with a loop. Slight build up at the end of the jam but doesn't get very far. | |
| 1998-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 8:54 | Machine Gun Trey is back at it in this powerhouse, albeit "Type I" version. | |
| 1998-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 11:31 | The sentiment shifts from blissful elation to hard edged rocker in this strong, well played "Type I" version. | |
| 1998-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 24:00 | Pretty high octane jam at first. Around 11:00, morphs into a snappy, funky phase. The energy builds as the jam regains momentum and space rage ensues. Jam abruptly segues to "Simple." | |
| 1998-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 13:42 | Page solos in the middle of the jam, and then the others gradually join back in to build to a high peak. | |
| 1998-11-11 | Grand Rapids, MI | 15:47 | You enjoy my Ghost while I set fire to this transformer substation leaving behind a smoldering pile of carboniferous goo. [Great groove with awesome funky Page playing with all his toys, then Trey takes the con and leads the jam to an incendiary, multi-summit peak.] |
