Acoustic, The |
Bridgeport |
CT | Might have you thinking you're listening on 1.5x speed. Breakneck pace and explosive first peak leads to some serious shredding from Peter in the second jam. |

Nietzsche's |
Buffalo |
NY | After a fairly standard first jam, second jam picks up in the 11th minute and no one could predict would follow as Goose launches into their longest, most exploratory jam to date (and only 30 min+ jam pre-2022) that caps off an all-time 4-song set. |

Old Town Pub & Restaurant |
Steamboat Springs |
CO | Multi-layered creative journey w/ 2 distinct jams. 1st starts with an "IUB"/"I is" vocalization & high energy jam. 2nd jam contains chaotic 2-guitar attack, Creatures-like groove & another shredding peak. Slows down for a landing into Danger Zone. |

Lincoln Hall |
Chicago |
IL | Another great high energy and unwavering 2019 jam. Peaks wonderfully before sliding into Doc Brown. |

Goose Community Rec Center |
Redding |
CT | A first jam that stays within bounds but explodes with the power of the sun leads into a second jam where the band members each have to "Take a Lap". Peter steps out early with aggressive guitar riffing as Rick and the drums lock in on each other as the music takes on a runaway freight train vibe. When Spuds finally takes his turn, Jeff picks up the beat out of the fragmented space and crafts an airy, major-key jam. Coach hops on rainstick and Rick adds some vocalizing as it slowly and patiently winds down. |

Essex Junction |
VT | Standard groove in the second jam is accentuated by Peter's clav work. |

Frederick Fairgrounds |
Frederick |
MD | Rick needs to tune on the intro, so we get some extra vamping. Jam builds into spacey mode and gets into a great -> to "Doc Brown". |

Eau Claire |
WI | -> from "Slow Ready". Continues the perfect flow of this set with a great jam before leading -> into "Can't Get You Outta My Head" and "Mais Que Nada". |

Portland |
ME | Peter has a BLAST with his new wireless guitar setup - bouncing all around the stage while vamping off Rick throughout the long second jam. |

Eastern, The |
Atlanta |
GA | Eschews the first jam and goes right into the driving second after the "whoa" section. Immedate and FURIOUS dual-guitar attack. Peter goes ham on envelope filter early on before Rick takes control and shreds. |

9:30 Club |
Washington |
DC | Seems to be heading in a fairly standard direction but a subtle shift leads the band into dark territory. Peter lays down some low textures on Vibe as Rick shreds the minor-key. Explosive ending and return to song proper. |

Red Hat Amphitheater |
Raleigh |
NC | The song's 2022 evolution really begins here as the band opts to jam out of Rick's solo section. Great keys work from Peter eventually morphs into a layered motif with excellent use of space by Peter on organ while Rick unleashes some dark-ish soloing. Under-the-radar yet excellent jam. |

Tsongas Center |
Lowell |
MA | Briskly tempo'd jam sets off with purpose and has some great layering of textures by Peter. Floats perfectly into the intro to "Echo." |

1STBANK Center |
Broomfield |
CO | Standard "Drive" fare until the last few minutes, where Rick and Peter dive headlong into evil shred as Spuds drums his ASS off. |

Capitol Theatre, The |
Port Chester |
NY | All-time first jam that starts off with fiery Rick shredding and melts into one of the most beautiful sections of patient, double-guitar bliss you will hear. Second jam contains a funk party that ends with Loose Ends jamming. |

Leader Bank Pavilion |
Boston |
MA | Fall tour opens with a blazing hot "Drive" that sees the band stretch out the solo section into some great dual-guitar madness. |

Kettlehouse Amphitheater |
Bonner |
MT | A rare fully-two-guitar jam for 2023. Deconstructs into a seriously groovy interplay section driven by Spuds' clap stack. Still pretty much Type I throughout but a very fun and groovy listen. Peter hits the keys right at the end with hints of Ted Tapes riffing as they > to an explosive "Red Bird." |

Academy 2 |
Manchester |
| After Peter tells crowd they have one more song, Rick rips back into a second Drive jam to end the show. A fiery theme develops and eventually morphs into the "(dawn)" finish. Incredible spontaneous moment. |

Capitol Theatre, The |
Port Chester |
NY | Cotter's first big jam and the band does not hold back one iota. First developing a ripping dual-guitar jam for several minutes - very active Trevor - before Cotter seamlessly transitions into the "second jam." Patiently builds into a bliss motif reminiscent of the ending of "SOS," peaking massively and concluding just short of the 31-minute mark. |

Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre |
Greenwood Village |
CO | Second "Drive" of the year and second to pass 30 minutes. Hangs out in fast-paced two-guitar funk zones until the 15th minute, when Rick leads into a more atmospheric zone atop a bed of Peter's synth. Trevor gets LOW as the band finds an ascending riff akin to "Time to Flee" and works it for a while. Eventually finds its way into a piano-forward zone that seems to hint at "Factory Fiction" for a while. Lands smoothly in a set-closing "Give it Time." |
2024-06-21 | Drive | 22:26 | Goose |
Fox Theatre |
Atlanta |
GA | Two-guitar funk dissolves into a patient major key with great cymbal contributions from Jeff. Never really takes off into high-energy peak land which is a rare occurrence and segues nicely into a powerful "Bob Don." |

Thompson's Point |
Portland |
ME | Thick and dirty dual-guitar work for its duration. Slides cleanly into "Hollywood Nights." |
