Look at this friggin' setlist. A 3.7 rating?! C'mon, this HAS to be better than that!
A ripping Soul Planet kicks the show off with a bang. WOW!
For only 12 minutes AND being the show opener, they sure took this one
for a ride! From ripping rock to '97-esque funky space jamming. NICE!
And then into 2001...literally there couldn't have been a better song to go into.
2001 was great. It didn't go anywhere jam-wise, but if you want a
straight-to-the-point version for a Non Album Songs playlist, this is
the one you need to grab. Perfectly "album ready", if that makes sense.
555 was pretty good. I wouldn't highlight it though. Personally I'm not
really a fan of the song that much so I can't say anything other than
"pretty good".
Farmhouse - normally I abhor seeing Farmhouse on a setlist BUT THIS IS
FRIGGIN TERRIFIC!!!! This is GORGEOUS! An absolutely wonderful
rendition!!!!
-------------------------------------------------
Bathtub Gin
AWESOME!!!
Starts out slow and blissful. Eventually it starts getting heavy and
menacing, turning into a dark funk jam. Trey does a lot of laying back,
letting the others take the lead.
Page is killing it tonight - not just on this song but on others he's been going nuts 
10 minutes in and we are about halfway (to the moon, haha). Trey
reasserts his presence slowly working himself back into prominence.
The darkness has receded and we are in an uptempo blissful feel-good jam.
Then around 12 minutes in, we somehow - IN THE SPACE OF 5 FRIGGIN'
SECONDS!!! - completely turn the jam upside down from uptempo 2010-era
bliss rock into 1999 murky Ghost stomp!
HOW DID THEY DO THAT?! 
Ambiance creeping in, if they slowed down the tempo they could segue perfectly into No Quarter.
But then Page gets off the keys and goes back to piano signalling a return in the jam to the bliss of before.
DAMN! Talk about a turnaround!!!!!!
They can't decide whether to go dark or light and continue the jam by straddling both sides of the abyss.
Oh my lawd, if I was in the crowd for this I would be dancing SO hard!
I'm sitting at the dining room table listening to this on my laptop with
all 4 limbs (and my head) bopping along the the jam.
Eventually they ride this to a final peak and segue perfectly back into the song portion letting us all catch our breath.
WOW.
--------------------------------------------------
Objectively, Night 1 was the better show, but this one is DAMN fine as
well and gives the first night a run for its money in the energy
department.
Also, LOOK AT THAT SETLIST! LOADED MUCH?!
Anywho, Bathtub Gin was straight up incredible.
Set 2 kicks off with a raging DWD that doesn't jam long, but it does reach some interestingly dark depths in its short lifespan.
Then BAM into Crosseyed (totally planned - no way was that segue unplanned!)
And this Crosseyed DESTROYS!
Seriously!
It's only 11 minutes but feels like it covers as much ground as that 19
minute Gin did and with 12 times more explosive energy!
Then it's into Scents.....Again, just explosive.
