It's a great performance, it's got a good beat and I can dance to it. I give it a 93. marble falls Sep 18 #2

Practice, practice, practice. Doing it right every time beats succesfully pulling it out of one's butt on occasion. marble falls Sep 18 #4

When I saw 6:10 on the video, I expected to see Jeff & Billy trading links.
But, the video end at around 3 & ½ minutes.
Really, there was no solo to speak of. Not what I expected.
But, we got to see Tal playing with her usual joy. She always looks like she's having a ball up there.

I will say the Billy's guitar tone never lets me down. He's a master of tone.
I had a buddy from NW Indiana (really good guitar player) whose biggest influence was Billy.
When those guys did Cheap Sunglasses, it rocked the house!
