Moments Worth Listening For

The explosive drum roll that kicks off the set, instantly bridging the gap between the stage and the listener.

A sprawling nine-minute version of Need Your Love that shifts from a slow burn to a heavy blues-rock climax.

The iconic call-and-response during the intro of I Want You to Want Me where the crowd becomes the lead vocalist.
