Down the Road Beer Co. |
Everett |
MA | Upon departure from song proper, Peter lays down a HEAVY layer of guitar while Rick vamps in major key, giving the otherwise standard jam a really cool feel. Peter then switches to keys as they hit a pleasant space for the remainder. |

Sprout Music Collective |
West Chester |
PA | Gorgeous groove (repeated in 12/6/19 "GB Rap") builds in intensity w/out losing its beauty. Glory peak at 11 ends with Rick returning to earlier groove. Shifts into more rocking style allowing more focus on each member before melting > Indian River. |

Old Town Pub & Restaurant |
Steamboat Springs |
CO | Nonstop dance party until they step on the gas in the last 5 minutes resulting in a fun, thrilling finish. |

Goose Community Rec Center |
Redding |
CT | Nonstop triumph. Must-hear. |
2020-10-15 | Wysteria Lane | 18:08 | Goose |
Legend Valley |
Thornville |
OH | Peter really simmers on this jam. Groovy and dark-tinged. |
2020-11-07 | Wysteria Lane | 15:35 | Goose |
South Farms |
Morris |
CT | Switches gears almost immediately with Spuds rocking the ride cymbal. Nonstop high-octane hose with "Hot Tea" teases from Rick. |
2021-05-08 | Wysteria Lane | 12:16 | Goose |
Caverns Above Ground Amphitheater, The |
Pelham |
TN | Gets a lot done in its relatively short runtime though its potential could have been explored more. Followed by the debut of Ted Tapes cut "Moby". |
2021-06-11 | Wysteria Lane | 16:56 | Goose |
Northlands Live |
Swanzey |
NH | Gets funkier than most versions and closes nicely with "Loose Ends". |
2021-07-06 | Wysteria Lane | 18:56 | Goose |
Pine Creek Lodge |
Livingston |
MT | Jam settles into a driving two-guitar groove. Peter finds the Magic School Bus theme and they riff on it for a few minutes before a phenomenal -> to "Echo of a Rose". |
2021-11-10 | Wysteria Lane | 25:00 | Goose |
House of Blues |
Houston |
TX | It's like the Bingo Tour version's more laid-back cousin. Peter hits the keys toward the end and LAYS on the thick electric piano. |
2021-11-21 | Wysteria Lane | 18:37 | Goose |
Mission Ballroom, The |
Denver |
CO | Melodic jamming slowly swelling particularly as Pete ramps up on second guitar. Seemingly coming to a grand finish, they take a lovely quieter approach for the final four minutes. |
2022-01-30 | Wysteria Lane | 18:26 | Goose |
Regency Ballroom, The |
San Francisco |
CA | Melodic soaring jam gives way to synthy darkness/heavy metal thrashing (begins ~10:45). Incredibly composed & patient swelling of dark jam before massive tension releases. One of Goose’s most significant jams signalling never-before-seen jamming style. |
2022-03-01 | Wysteria Lane | 24:38 | Goose |
9:30 Club |
Washington |
DC | Jam begins by hitting into a "Dripfield"-like theme that throws us into driving darkness. Space is whipped up as the motif reaches its apex. We come down on the other side with a classic rock-feeling jam that just grooves and rages to the end. |
2022-03-07 | Wysteria Lane | 18:51 | Goose |
Mill & Mine, The |
Knoxville |
TN | The younger sibling of 1/30 and 3/1. Hits on dark themes but doesn't explore them to the same extent as the other two Winter 2022 behemoth "Wysteria". |
2022-06-06 | Wysteria Lane | 25:56 | Goose |
Champlain Valley Exposition |
Essex Junction |
VT | Grooving jam until switch to 2-guitars & there is a melodic march up to a lovely peak. Spacey synthy outro jam turns into 2nd jam with funk-filled finish. Listen for the genesis of the "Thatch" opening lick five months before the song's debut. |
2022-10-11 | Wysteria Lane | 24:15 | Goose |
Arvest Bank Theater at the Midland |
Kansas City |
MO | Band finds a very cool theme they build around and seem ready to wind down before Big T says NO (~17:40) and re-ignites the jam. Rick latches onto Trevor’s new theme, combining with old theme, and drives to a rocking finish. |
2022-11-11 | Wysteria Lane | 16:25 | Goose |
Tsongas Center |
Lowell |
MA | Trey Anastasio sit-in. Shorter version for the year but contains absolutely gorgeous double-guitar interplay and bliss peak. |
2022-12-16 | Wysteria Lane | 22:58 | Goose |
1STBANK Center |
Broomfield |
CO | Airy groove develops early on when Peter makes the switch to keys. Trevor initiates a catchy hook and the band follows, developing the motif in an incredibly patient way. Jam pivots when Peter pulls the "Audience Group Hug" ball and Rick tears through a euphoric peak atop a wave of synthesizer. Fades into the perfect landing pad in "Moby." |
2023-03-08 | Wysteria Lane | 17:50 | Goose |
Capitol Theatre, The |
Port Chester |
NY | Fiery Type 1 jam breaks at 12:16 into open plane of space highlighted by Trevor Bass. A contemplative & melancholic jam emerges, bringing to mind Talk Talk and The Cure, centered around gorgeous leads from Rick & Peter before > to "Doobie." |
2023-03-30 | Wysteria Lane | 27:57 | Goose |
Ryman Auditorium |
Nashville |
TN | What’s better than a gorgeous patient Eminence Front-like building peak? How about a brilliant cooldown only to build up to a raging, frenetic second peak! |
2023-04-13 | Wysteria Lane | 20:49 | Goose |
Sylvee, The |
Madison |
WI | Excellent listening / subtleness w/ combination of melodic, grunginess & darkness, as Peter shifts sounds w/ various effects on guitar and keys. Trevor, Ben & Jeff also active as Rick hangs back in support until 16th minute driving a ripping peak. |
2023-04-21 | Wysteria Lane | 24:05 | Goose |
Knitting Factory |
Boise |
ID | Drummers lock in on the primal toms as Peter unleashes both synth and Vibe. Major-key vamp emerges as Rick chops up rhythm guitar. Peaks hard and gets klezmer-ish before building into "Get The Funk Out Ma Face." |
2023-06-30 | Wysteria Lane | 17:50 | Goose |
Nelson Ledges Quarry Park |
Garrettsville |
OH | Typical mellow start until Ben begins tribal drumming, Rick changes to a grungier tone and jam thrusts into a nasty rock build. |
2023-09-16 | Wysteria Lane | 24:35 | Goose |
Masonic Temple |
Detroit |
MI | Initial two-guitar duelling fragments into marimba space and slows down into some classic Fall '23 bliss-building. Hints of the reverse "Heartbreaker" riff Rick loves so much punch through at the peak before Peter leads into a piano-centric outro jam that might just be the best part of the whole thing. |
2023-10-07 | Wysteria Lane | 19:26 | Goose |
West Lawn at Lory Student Center |
Fort Collins |
CO | Tech issues with Rick's mic cause the band to bail on the song after the first verse and just jam. A strong Type I peak is reached before Peter hits the Vibe and infuses "Magic School Bus" into the groove. Smoothly goes from there into a more evil space thanks to Rick's shredding and peaks nicely. |
2023-11-07 | Wysteria Lane | 20:18 | Goose |
Melkweg |
Amsterdam |
| Highlight of the Jamsterdam show, Peter shines as he drives mood of jam with simple yet powerful selections on keys throughout, ending in beautiful Blissteria collective band magic. Slides into a really great "Electric Avenue." |
2023-11-18 | Wysteria Lane | 17:40 | Goose |
Thekla |
Bristol |
| Peter stays on guitar for the entire jam, an exceptionally rare occurrence for the time period. Some nasty Type I churn explodes through the first part of the jam but cools around 13:30. Peter's staccato repeated riff informs the next part of the jam, where the band plays with a theme akin to the ending of "Dripfield." Great upbeat groove modes. |
