    Jam chartBreaks apart early on via a major mode shift, as a spacey loop from Trey creates an airy vibe on top of Fishman's strong foundation. The music shifts back to minor, with Mike's melodic basslines and Page's enveloping synths curating an introspective atmosphere. Optimism then begins to peek out of the haze, as Trey begins to tear off some delightfully spry leads, eventually driving this psychedelic affair towards a celebratory crescendo to close it all out.

    Jam chartA typically jaunty, groovy improvisation makes a break for more pastoral, psychedelic territories around the 6:30 mark. With Fishman's pocket remaining constant and ever rock-solid, Trey, Page and Mike's particularly funky affected tones help to create an intoxicatingly textural dance party, before the "Oblivion" closing section emerges to close it out.

    Jam chartSomething 'haunting' about "Oblivion's" opening when done right, and that's the case here. Always moody (one way or the other), the tune is a choice second set opener, and Trey opts for immediate excellence after crashing through the song proper, with the band finding a proper groove right around 5:30. Trey and Page pair from the jump, with the improv, some of the very best kind, finding Trey seemingly playing with two minds, somehow splashing different, concentric ideas - in a manner of thinking - off the other, in a manner (or sound) similar to one of his heroes.

    Jam chartWhile the band may not cover a lot of new ground, they certainly traverse a lot of interesting territory. The song's signature line (which many have already likened to "Sand") runs, at least for some time, "like" Sand. Moody, atmospheric play does break for airier sounds, with Trey splashing through sonic soil, the version becoming an airier affair. Page pounces, and the second "half" of the jam is marked by great full-band play before a return to song, proper, to close.

    Jam chartAfter a brief stay in the minor synth zone, the jam trends more upbeat by 8:00 and shortly thereafter features more seriously rocking riffage, then deftly turns on the hose with a few long sustained notes from Trey along the way for a surefire crowd-pleasing conclusion.

    Jam chart- > from a "Jibboo" worth your time. This sprawling jam starts patiently as the band jams around the structure of the song for a good bit before spreading its wings. Ever so slowly, the tempo gradually builds until things reach a "mini-peak" before Trey winds things back to sing the chorus again.

    Jam chartThe second leg of a mammoth 1-2 punch following "Tweezer", "Oblivion" proves to be a prime vehicle for synth-drenched improvisation. A late-night, portentous atmosphere persists until the pivot to major shortly after 11:00, bringing to bear an encouraging blissful payoff.
