I think this may be my favorite version I have ever witnessed of my favorite MMJ song.

Totally mind-bending. That sound and those lights. SO. GOOD.  :shocked:
I'm still tripping off it. Those fucking lights and what they've done to steam engine just took it to an entirely new level.  Seriously,  those lights, man.

I left my mind in row J... Bonkers!

That was an epic mind warp.  No other words to describe it.  Seemed so out of left field in an awesome way.  Seems like they were totally in their own little world.  They need to make that a staple for this tour at least.  Pure wickedness.
And all that ever mattered will some day turn back to batter, like a joke.

Mr. Whippy, it was nice to meet you Saturday night. You were standing next to Fully in the lobby before the show.

Nice to meet you, too.  Let's do it again real soon.   :beer:
My heart can't wait to meet you on the other side.

That was rad.  Thanks for sharing.  Think I might go request this one for Red Rocks...

Steam is my favorite Jacket song and I agree this version was the best I've heard live. The version they did at Headliners for the Waterfall show was really special but this one just was a dream.  Maybe even spoiled me because how can they top this version right??  Somehow I think they will.

Great meeting you Crispy and Whippy and the other forum members. Such a great weekend!
If you don't know for yourself, how could you ever know for me....

Hell yeah!  :thumbsup:

That was as close to space as I've seen since Jerry. 

Eric, funny you should say that. 

After the Knoxville show, I mentioned to Ms Y that the jam in Athens after IWSYS and this jam after Steam Engine in Knoxville really reminded me of something the Dead started doing in 1990 where they would play Terrapin Station which would go into the normal jam that concludes that song, then they would go into a very different sounding, very free-form jam that still felt connected to Terrapin but was very different than the usual jam that concludes that song.* 

Not sure if you ever saw them do that or will remember what I'm talking about if you did.

*Wow, that is a really long-winded sentence.
Space Engine  :cool:
