I love that sexy lead run Eric Johnson slips in at 4:11. I wish his guitar was turned up a bit louder for it. This is probably my favorite version of this jam. Eric's glassy guitar tone just suits well offsetting Ian and Brian's heavy distortion.
@@betbuk EJ's guitar being buried in the mix may have been intentional since EJ probably wasn't too familiar with Big Wreck's music, and EJ was mostly going to be finding his way around the fretboard and mostly doing improv. EJ did quite well with it, and I know Ian and Brian must have been on cloud nine getting to share a stage with him.
I love how Ian calls Eric one of the best guitar players on the planet, as if hes not on that list himself
He was still a young lad then. Now that he’s Eric age now I think he’s finally getting that credit.
That was awesome!

It was an amazing show! EJ was a bit underwhelming in the mix, but you could see the reverence that Brian and Ian had for him!
