Down the Road Beer Co. |
Everett |
MA | Upon departure from song proper, Peter lays down a HEAVY layer of guitar while Rick vamps in major key, giving the otherwise standard jam a really cool feel. Peter then switches to keys as they hit a pleasant space for the remainder. |

Sprout Music Collective |
West Chester |
PA | Gorgeous groove (repeated in 12/6/19 "GB Rap") builds in intensity w/out losing its beauty. Glory peak at 11 ends with Rick returning to earlier groove. Shifts into more rocking style allowing more focus on each member before melting > Indian River. |

Old Town Pub & Restaurant |
Steamboat Springs |
CO | Nonstop dance party until they step on the gas in the last 5 minutes resulting in a fun, thrilling finish. |

Goose Community Rec Center |
Redding |
CT | Nonstop triumph. Must-hear. |
2020-10-15 | Wysteria Lane | 18:08 | Goose |
Legend Valley |
Thornville |
OH | Peter really simmers on this jam. Groovy and dark-tinged. |
2020-11-07 | Wysteria Lane | 15:35 | Goose |
South Farms |
Morris |
CT | Switches gears almost immediately with Spuds rocking the ride cymbal. Nonstop high-octane hose with "Hot Tea" teases from Rick. |
2021-05-08 | Wysteria Lane | 12:16 | Goose |
Caverns Above Ground Amphitheater, The |
Pelham |
TN | Gets a lot done in its relatively short runtime though its potential could have been explored more. Followed by the debut of Ted Tapes cut "Moby". |
2021-06-11 | Wysteria Lane | 16:56 | Goose |
Northlands Live |
Swanzey |
NH | Gets funkier than most versions and closes nicely with "Loose Ends". |
2021-07-06 | Wysteria Lane | 18:56 | Goose |
Pine Creek Lodge |
Livingston |
MT | Jam settles into a driving two-guitar groove. Peter finds the Magic School Bus theme and they riff on it for a few minutes before a phenomenal -> to "Echo of a Rose". |
2021-11-10 | Wysteria Lane | 25:00 | Goose |
House of Blues |
Houston |
TX | It's like the Bingo Tour version's more laid-back cousin. Peter hits the keys toward the end and LAYS on the thick electric piano. |
2021-11-21 | Wysteria Lane | 18:37 | Goose |
Mission Ballroom, The |
Denver |
CO | Melodic jamming slowly swelling particularly as Pete ramps up on second guitar. Seemingly coming to a grand finish, they take a lovely quieter approach for the final four minutes. |
2022-01-30 | Wysteria Lane | 18:26 | Goose |
Regency Ballroom, The |
San Francisco |
CA | Melodic soaring jam gives way to synthy darkness/heavy metal thrashing (begins ~10:45). Incredibly composed & patient swelling of dark jam before massive tension releases. One of Goose’s most significant jams signalling never-before-seen jamming style. |
2022-03-01 | Wysteria Lane | 24:38 | Goose |
9:30 Club |
Washington |
DC | Jam begins by hitting into a "Dripfield"-like theme that throws us into driving darkness. Space is whipped up as the motif reaches its apex. We come down on the other side with a classic rock-feeling jam that just grooves and rages to the end. |
2022-03-07 | Wysteria Lane | 18:51 | Goose |
Mill & Mine, The |
Knoxville |
TN | The younger sibling of 1/30 and 3/1. Hits on dark themes but doesn't explore them to the same extent as the other two Winter 2022 behemoth "Wysteria". |
2022-06-06 | Wysteria Lane | 25:56 | Goose |
Champlain Valley Exposition |
Essex Junction |
VT | Grooving jam until switch to 2-guitars & there is a melodic march up to a lovely peak. Spacey synthy outro jam turns into 2nd jam with funk-filled finish. Listen for the genesis of the "Thatch" opening lick five months before the song's debut. |
2022-10-11 | Wysteria Lane | 24:15 | Goose |
Arvest Bank Theater at the Midland |
Kansas City |
MO | Band finds a very cool theme they build around and seem ready to wind down before Big T says NO (~17:40) and re-ignites the jam. Rick latches onto Trevor’s new theme, combining with old theme, and drives to a rocking finish. |
2022-11-11 | Wysteria Lane | 16:25 | Goose |
Tsongas Center |
Lowell |
MA | Trey Anastasio sit-in. Shorter version for the year but contains absolutely gorgeous double-guitar interplay and bliss peak. |
2022-12-16 | Wysteria Lane | 22:58 | Goose |
1STBANK Center |
Broomfield |
CO | Airy groove develops early on when Peter makes the switch to keys. Trevor initiates a catchy hook and the band follows, developing the motif in an incredibly patient way. Jam pivots when Peter pulls the "Audience Group Hug" ball and Rick tears through a euphoric peak atop a wave of synthesizer. Fades into the perfect landing pad in "Moby." |
2023-03-08 | Wysteria Lane | 17:50 | Goose |
Capitol Theatre, The |
Port Chester |
NY | Fiery Type 1 jam breaks at 12:16 into open plane of space highlighted by Trevor Bass. A contemplative & melancholic jam emerges, bringing to mind Talk Talk and The Cure, centered around gorgeous leads from Rick & Peter before > to "Doobie." |
2023-03-30 | Wysteria Lane | 27:57 | Goose |
Ryman Auditorium |
Nashville |
TN | What’s better than a gorgeous patient Eminence Front-like building peak? How about a brilliant cooldown only to build up to a raging, frenetic second peak! |
2023-04-13 | Wysteria Lane | 20:49 | Goose |
Sylvee, The |
Madison |
WI | Excellent listening / subtleness w/ combination of melodic, grunginess & darkness, as Peter shifts sounds w/ various effects on guitar and keys. Trevor, Ben & Jeff also active as Rick hangs back in support until 16th minute driving a ripping peak. |
2023-04-21 | Wysteria Lane | 24:05 | Goose |
Knitting Factory |
Boise |
ID | Drummers lock in on the primal toms as Peter unleashes both synth and Vibe. Major-key vamp emerges as Rick chops up rhythm guitar. Peaks hard and gets klezmer-ish before building into "Get The Funk Out Ma Face." |
2023-06-30 | Wysteria Lane | 17:50 | Goose |
Nelson Ledges Quarry Park |
Garrettsville |
OH | Typical mellow start until Ben begins tribal drumming, Rick changes to a grungier tone and jam thrusts into a nasty rock build. |
2023-09-16 | Wysteria Lane | 24:35 | Goose |
Masonic Temple |
Detroit |
MI | Initial two-guitar duelling fragments into marimba space and slows down into some classic Fall '23 bliss-building. Hints of the reverse "Heartbreaker" riff Rick loves so much punch through at the peak before Peter leads into a piano-centric outro jam that might just be the best part of the whole thing. |
2023-10-07 | Wysteria Lane | 19:26 | Goose |
West Lawn at Lory Student Center |
Fort Collins |
CO | Tech issues with Rick's mic cause the band to bail on the song after the first verse and just jam. A strong Type I peak is reached before Peter hits the Vibe and infuses "Magic School Bus" into the groove. Smoothly goes from there into a more evil space thanks to Rick's shredding and peaks nicely. |
2023-11-07 | Wysteria Lane | 20:18 | Goose |
Melkweg |
Amsterdam |
| Highlight of the Jamsterdam show, Peter shines as he drives mood of jam with simple yet powerful selections on keys throughout, ending in beautiful Blissteria collective band magic. Slides into a really great "Electric Avenue." |
2023-11-18 | Wysteria Lane | 17:40 | Goose |
Thekla |
Bristol |
| Peter stays on guitar for the entire jam, an exceptionally rare occurrence for the time period. Some nasty Type I churn explodes through the first part of the jam but cools around 13:30. Peter's staccato repeated riff informs the next part of the jam, where the band plays with a theme akin to the ending of "Dripfield." Great upbeat groove modes. |
2024-04-09 | Wysteria Lane | 17:33 | Goose |
Capitol Theatre, The |
Port Chester |
NY | Great dual-guitar churn on the front end, but the last few minutes of deconstructive and contemplative play are the real star. Showed potential for further exploration but was abandoned in favour of a concise "Echo of a Rose." |
