- ★★★★★ · woefully un-reviewed NYE show · slimboyhowdy · 2005
while a bit up and down, IMHO this is a great new year's show. and there aren't many of those as most of us realize. i'm not sure what the fella down there's talking about when he asks where jer's vocal is. it's right where it always was in '85 -- a bit low in the mix bit still emotive as hell.... just listen to 'black peter!' anyway, first set highlights include a very ripping 'cassidy,' nice and tight with plenty of phil and bob d'oh-ing the lyrics (at least brent's got his back), a sweet…

If you were not around for '85 shows, you need to somehow get a look at this one. It was on the USA network (audio - FM stations). This New Year's show is underrated. Sure it's not '76 or '78, but it is a 20 song show that is solid from start to finish. If you can get the Father Garducci (sp?) segment, please do. It is funny and he did a great job with that style of humor. Not Fade is pulsating and takes you right into the show.

First I've seen a few reviews b******* about the band and their quality of playing that night. Well, first things first, the band was as HIGH as we were. And I was pretty damn high that night. Love the tye-dye crowd effect from the Gondola at the top of the arena. Full oil bubble show, full projection screens. Just beautiful. Everybody I hear b******* about the show I didn't see you at section 223 using the scoreboard as a rolling tray or for linskies.
