I've seen every Alpine show since 97 except the 14th in 2010 (mistake, I know...lol) and after many re-listens 2015.08.09 has to be ranked very high among those shows. I...never...saw...this...coming. Not like it did.

"Of course you know what a fuse is..."

It was so, so surprising and out of the blue to finally get that Forbin I've been chasing for 70+ shows. There it was, at the place I NEVER EVER thought I'd see it happen. And then....first narration since 2000. BOOM goes the dynamite of "the very long fuse". Place ERUPTED!! Show could not have started any better unless it began with an oom-pa-pa. LMFAO

I won't describe every single song in detail; you know the list. But Esther Weigh back2back? Then Sanity (also a first for me!!). I Saw It Again with THREE false endings? Only the 5th time Antelope has ever opened Set II? This was without a doubt an epic all time show at Alpine.

Don't be fooled by the Carini>Waves ripchord (WHY, Trey?), this Set II is elite. Don't be fooled by Tweezer's lack of length, because the only version this summer that honestly surpasses it is Atlanta IMHO and yes, I have listened to every other version more than twice.

No need to go longer than that here. This is one of the best shows of the best tour since god knows when. So grateful I made it to this one. The end.
