December 27, 2016: Two Trains
More trouble at the beginning of the show. No Big Guitars intro, no Texas Johnny Brown, no Angela Strehli, the first few songs are random numbers from the Drummer Stream. But once we start takin' off, around 13 minutes in, the show is mine. And once those two trains start running, we really get in the groove.
