Best Jams For Amusement Only Tour '18

@RadiantDarkness said in Best Jams FAO Tour '18:
honorable mention to 1/19 Lonely. They didn't just go straight into rage mode like they have been with it recently. Brian starts bending strings like a madman and hands us a beautifully composed jam filled with bliss. Will it be the jam of the year? Nah, but it's showing that the band isn't just going through the motions up there, they are indeed flying with the wind and whatever catches, they go with it!
Disclaimer: I dance with my arms so when Brian catches these moments of undulation, it freaks my body the fuck out and they always leave a deeper impression in my mind.
@Kyle-Burbank and I totally thought they were about to bust into Alternate Ending during that Lonely jam. Brian was just feeding off of the energy in the room that night. He went all rock star and got out on the very edge of the stage in rage stance at one point! That Lonely may have been my favorite part of the show, but I can't even say that for sure. I am very impressed with everything these guys are putting out right now!

pawtucket reds jam is incredible. on my fifth listen already. thought cleveland would be untouchable for at least a little while but nah they had to break out a wicked big one for the paw sawx kid
Gives nod of approval. Multiple jam sections, 2-3 min segue into AMF... basically has all you could ask for in the #1 slot... build to rage->pop it->settle her down->slowly find your way into all my friends

@RadiantDarkness right around the 10-12 minute mark i've had to ask myself what i was listening to because i kept forgetting every time. if that's not the sign of a great jam i don't know what is.
-
Add the Mad World from Buffalo and the Lonely from Syracuse to your list! @Night-Train

Gotta throw Soul to Squeeze>Reprise from Asbury into this discussion
-
Already have the All In from 1/31 on repeat, I’ll throw that one in the hat. Red playing out his mind this tour.

asbury hollywood is what i remember most
will need to relisten as i was in and out most of the streamAfter relisten, I wouldn't put Asbury Hollywood on this list, per se. Great jam though!
I would definitely add Those Shoes>Walls! The From DC though!
The 8 minute segue is between them is worthy of discussion alone. Both jams rip. Great way to close out a set.
Also, no brainer to add the Jam>BDF from the Culture Room to must listen material.
