Night two in San Francisco. Bob brings Flood in with a beautiful guitar intro. Bullock takes the first solo. JT builds it up. He and Nate get into some thick grooves before the drop. Nate sets up Semente. Jay takes one on flugelhorn. JT transitions right into Grown Folks. Justin gets interactive during his trumpet solo. Maz picks up where he left off. Bob takes the last one. Gemini simmers for a while. Bill takes a solo on Prophet for the first time on this tune. JT does a beautiful job of setting up Binky. Nate joins in. The band stays in the percussive stew for a minute. Shaun takes the first solo with some Moog acrobatics. Jay bops through the second one. Bill stretches out. The band hits a serious groove on the outro. Magda joins for an encore of her beautiful tune, Thiamandi, in Greek. Michael Jackson is referenced for a quick version of the old song Quarter Master.
