CA | Grahame Lesh sit-in delivers superb, athletic dual guitar work at 6-7 min over an energetic groove. Jake briefly toggles to whistling Northern Lights effect by 9 min. Guitar interplay incorporated into the peaky groove and Mike's contributions, e.g. 10 min, have an impact. Pivots to a synthy dance groove by 11 min.

Portland |
ME | Energetic Type 1.5 jamming slows to a descending staccato Clav groove around 11 min. Jake exploration is patient and fluid, e.g. 13 min, and builds momentum and melody thereafter.

Hit discrete peaks at 20 min while riding the frothy wave; Mike shines with melodic lines underneath it all. Quiets at 22 min to move back to Trixieville. |
