View NotesThe Jed Luckless Winter Tour 2021 rolls into Blissful Island in Secondlife for a rockin show under the palm trees and over the reefs. Moondance joins the fun again with an amazing light show while Jed cranks out two jammy sets of original music. The show opens powerfully with Jed's rocker "The Need For Love," followed by "Lead Me" off his 2010 All At Once album. A quiet and moving "Nothing Left To Say" is in the third slot, and then it's time for Jed to open things up with the bouncy "On The Shelf" which gives way to the first big jam of the night which seems to be taking cues from Phish's "N2O" complete with a drowsy narrative amidst a throbbing back beat. It dissolved nicely into the middle-eastern intrumental "Valley Of The Saints," which is followed seamslessly with the first cover song of the night, the Allman Brothers "Sweet Melissa," with some nice slide and harmonies on guitar. The GuRGLe era blueser "Black Molly" closes out the first frame. You know its a good second set when the song count is five, and in this case it's really four plus the elusive "Mailboat Jam." It starts out with an epic verion of "Multiply" that extends nearly twenty-three minutes and features a fast paced 6/8 improv with piano and fiery guitar riffs followed by a smokingly blissful major jam with soaring leads. From the smoke emerges the apocalyptic love song "End Of Time." An early 90's rocker called "Give It Up" makes a rare appearance next and it too spwans an epic jam with a poppy progression and distinctive time signature. It winds down into nice ambient tones which deepen as Jed moves to the keys and takes it into the rarely played "Mailboat Jam" an instrumental usually played on guitar but given an awesome synth treatment here. After several transcendant minutes Jed shifts back to guitar for the second movement of the piece which features an uptempo guitar jam with nice use of the theramin to bring it home. Things settle down after that with the mellow finger-picked "Own" to close the set, followed by the tour-required Phish encore with "Fast Enough For You." You can tell Jed and Moonie are comfortable at this tropical venue, as they deliver an energetic show chock full of highlight jams and rarities. Enjoy!
