View NotesThe Jed Luckless Winter Tour 2021 makes a stop at Jed's "home field" Commune Utopia where he maintains a treehouse residence. Following the big Phish event the week before, Jed and Moonie seem excited to get back to the regular program of original music and jams with a few choice covers. At this point in the tour after nine shows, there had been no repeat songs. Jed reaches into the depths of his repetoire for the setlist, and although there are two repeats, he delivers an exceptionally rare set of songs in the second half. That said, the first set is rocking and in itself features some rarities. The show opens with the fun little ditty "Quarter To Four," which has only been played 11 times in nearly 600 shows. It's followed by an unreleased original called "Tighten Up" that Jed almost never plays due to copyright infringement issues. But he throws caution to the wind, and opens up the song into an amazing early show jam that's over fifteen minutes. It segues into a newer tune of Jed's called "The Birds Don't Know." A pair of poignant songs come next with "Begging For Mercy" and "Cash Me In," followed by the first cover song of the night, The Velvet Underground's "Rock And Roll," which Jed extends into the second jam of the evening, also over fifteen minutes long. It's obvious he's front loading the jams, and we'll know why in second set. The "R&R" jam has a great surprise transition into the bluegrassy "Used To Feel Good" which closes the first frame. As mentioned, second set is a special one. It includes the first repeats of the tour, but that's because Jed chooses to play his space opera the "Luna Suite" in its entirety. According to the Jed Base, he's never played the entire piece live before. Large portions of it yes, but never the whole thing, and never with the kind of narration and storytelling he includes here. It opens with a droning ambience over which Jed narrates the tale of a dying Earth and mankinds search for a new home. The "Luna Overture" begins and leads into the popular "Ozone Blues," the first repeat of the tour. In between songs, Jed more casually tells the story, from "The Caravan" of people racing to the moon to the hero's journey to "Luna." He tells us about the "Courier" and his run in with "The Constable." We learn about the evil company in "Incorporation" and the deception of the "The ARC." Our hero's love story is told via "Oh My Star" and his moral and emotional dillema comes to a head with "The Launch" and the poignant conclusion "Come Tomorrow." It's an amazing journey, and while it's not the usual jammy second set we are used to from Jed, it is a special treat that those in attendance will not soon forget. With no curfew in place at the Commune, Jed manages to still deliver another 40 minutes of music, including an amazing but uncharateristic "All At Once" jam that extends nearly twenty minutes to close the set, along with a double dose of Phish for the encore, featuring "If I Could" and an absolutely shredding "First Tube." This is a wonderful show at a venue Jed is super comfortable at, allowing him to stretch his wings and deliver a unique experience even for him. Never before has the Luna Suite been played in its entirety and who knows when it will be again. For that reason alone this would be a must-hear show. But add in the "Tighten Up" and "All At Once" jams and you will not be sorry for giving this one your time. Enjoy!
