Jam Chart for shows in the city of Washington, DC (19 entries)
| Date | Song | City | Timing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1990-06-07 | Washington, DC | 12:32 | Crazy, long early version. At one point Mike sounds like he will break into into "Heartbreaker." | |
| 1990-06-07 | Washington, DC | 7:26 | Dissonant jam with lots of "DEG"-like jamming. | |
| 1990-10-08 | Washington, DC | 6:51 | Odd and awesome early version which, in addition to great jazz-inflected soloing by Trey, Page and Mike, also features somewhat dark, almost dissonant jamming before the ending. | |
| 1990-10-08 | Washington, DC | 10:33 | Good jam that gets very improvisational, especially after 5:30. Machine Gun Trey in combat duty in the latter part of the jam. | |
| 1991-02-19 | Washington, DC | 12:34 | Good intro. Raging "Type I" version with an unusual stop mid-jam (possibly the power went out). | |
| 1991-02-19 | Washington, DC | 8:06 | Beginning of the jam is very cool with several near stops by the band. Then there's piercing, ear-splitting playing by Trey. | |
| 1991-02-19 | Washington, DC | 5:20 | Page-written, Trey-driven. Or so it often seems. Here, Trey works in a "Theme from the Flintstones" tease before easing through a series of slashing, jazzy chords, and a bright, melodic line. Fish solos, making for a great outro. "Fire" follows to cap off this cool encore. | |
| 1991-11-16 | Washington, DC | 7:41 | Good early "Gin." The jam (like most from pre-August '93) is grinding, decelerating and somewhat dissonant. Nothing like the melodic hose jams that would emerge later. This one also has amusing screaming and yelling at the end. | |
| 1991-11-16 | Washington, DC | 5:53 | Some unusual bass lines from Mike and organ playing by Page create a strong sense of tension in this ripper. | |
| 1991-11-16 | Washington, DC | 20:54 | Must-hear jam segment; legendary "Mrs. Pizza Shit" YEM. | |
| 1992-03-17 | Washington, DC | 8:46 | Almost sounds like 1997 five years early with Page's funky sounding organ. Must-hear. | |
| 1993-02-07 | Washington, DC | 8:18 | Really cool version with Trey (5:27) leading the band through extended "DEG"-like play, before (5:52) entering what sounds like "Rift". This, then, into raw and raucous soloing, which brings the version to a customarily strong close. | |
| 1993-02-07 | Washington, DC | 13:54 | A crazy composed section with a lot of hissing and screaming (affectionately known as the "Baguette" version), breaks for a jam featuring playing both fluid and somewhat jarring. In time, Mike provides a great beat over which Trey creates a cool vibe. The band modulates intensity to inform an exploratory space, within which the musicians coalesce to create a sound supercharged and sonic. Trey then pushes the band through an erratic, but wholly controlled peak. | |
| 1993-02-07 | Washington, DC | 21:54 | Excellent version with "Clementine" VJ. | |
| 1993-12-28 | Washington, DC | 12:05 | Jazzy, exploratory and quiet beginning to the jam. The power cranks up with "Kashmir" teases and then gets blistering hot. | |
| 1993-12-28 | Washington, DC | 20:30 | Great opening segment! | |
| 1999-12-15 | Washington, DC | 15:24 | Compared to most '99s, the jam here breaks earlier into a light, textured groove that intensifies as it returns to "DwD." | |
| 1999-12-15 | Washington, DC | 16:45 | A gentle straightforward jam transforms into a nice groove-based jam around 10:30 and eventually works back to "Gin." | |
| 1999-12-15 | Washington, DC | 16:11 | Jam starts in typical fashion, but then Trey hits the keyboards for an extended and very different version. |
