Thank you
And wow, that was great, I'm exhausted.
When Tommy stands up, I thought they were going to implode from the kinetic energy.

Awesome musicians!

But… Tommy shows here once again why he's the best player ever.

Are you kidding me...I mean really, it is all I can do not to throw all my guitars away and just give up....hahah. How can you play like that and seemingly never it a bad note!!!!! Tommy is unbelievable.

I can't wait for the tab to come out on that

Its obviously all about the three guitarists but the tone that the bass player has is perfect IMO. Almost James Jamerson tone.

Yep, its like walking Jordan in basketball, Gretzky in hockey, or Tiger in his prime on the golf course - surrounded by amazing talent yet they all still stood out as having truly generational ability.


Simply awesome - would have loved to have been there.

That was awesome. Or as my kids say, it was sick. I was. Just looking at Tommy's tour dates. I don't know how anyone can function with that much travel.

Wore me out. Now I have to go hear the original to re-groove that tune back to fun.
