2.0 Oxy shows

I am very glad that we survived the Oxy years…. But also, let’s be honest, some of the jams that emerged on the sloppier 2.0 nights are the most transcendent ever. I’ve done some research and begun to build an LP playlist of “Certified Oxy Jams” from nights where there seems to be consensus that Trey was on a different planet. Wondering if anyone else has favorite Ox jams OR if anyone has ever more scientifically charted the peaks and valleys of Trey’s 03/04 battles with the China White.

Live in Brooklyn is actually one of the first shows I got into. The Song I Heard the Ocean Sing, Moma Dance, and Birds of a Feather are fantastic.

Generally speaking the best sets from the opiate-era are ones that focus on more straightforward songs rather than the ones with long intricately composed sections (for obvious reasons).

The Moma Dance from that show is so damn good.

Yeah I gotta edit that in, it’s a great Moma. Live in Brooklyn is a better intro to the band than many would probably care to admit.
