4/17/92  Warfield theater, San Francisco, Ca

"We'd like to thank Mike's brother for helping us out with that last
tune."  (Brother opened the set, and, apparently, there was a bathtub
onstage that mike's brother went in and out of.. or something)
Cass>dat boards of this show are out there.. they sound pretty..

The pre-Nirvana segment is identical to 4/15/92, basically.  Long and
drawn out.. just not AS long as 4/15/92.. Nirvana at 2:01.. nothing
exciting.  Standard gorgeous opening YEM fare. Mike's solo section is
even more weird than 4/15, but still using that some eerie effect..
nothing exciting.  The pre-charge is fine.. Trey's jamming around the
NOTES is much more exciting than 4/15.  Much more!!  Very good licks
from him in here, particularly around the first Note, though,
admittedly.  Damn.

"Boy" at 5:25, after a reasonable scream.  WUDMTF segment standard.
Tramps jam opens at 7:30.. Page is fairly mellow.. typical stuff from
him.  Mike is signaling da tramp moves..  Jamming in here is decent,
but nothing exceptional.

Jam segment begins at about 9:13, with Trey repetitively noodling
(descending scales at first), but it quickly goes into this groovy
jam, which stops/starts a lil bit here and there (every other
measure, a WHAP! WHAP!).  Never heard this style of jam in any of the
YEMs I've reviewed so far.  After this, the YEM segment gets typically
funky, and trey solos very melodiously, with a touch of Santana and
Page, though.  Excellent!!  Around 11:35 or so, he is jamming similar
to the way he did briefly in the 3/25/92 YEM jam segment.. trey is
very clean, and trills madly and noodles voraciously.  A very, very
sweeeet jam segment.  The concluding trilling is fantastic!!!

12:36 is B&D, and Mike starts out low and kinda slow.. nothing
exciting from him in here, particularly.  He just noodles very low on
the 'doc at first.. accompaniment from Fish is good.  Mike gets higher
around 13 minutes, but there's nothing especially grand from him in
here until about 13:25 when he RIPS IT UP for a few.. pretty good up
until the

closing WUDMTF segment comes in at 13:56.  HOM-NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..
HOM-DEEEE.. MAGOOOO ... MAGOOOOO...MAGOOO-AHH.. Gluck gluck glaaaahk..
goo ma gooo.. goo ma goo.. Your typical goofy Ninja Custodians vocal
jam, imo.  Total time 18:31.  (B- rating)
