No. 5

3/30 Wysteria Lane - Ryman Auditorium N1, Nashville TN

The Rysteria - absolutely massive double peak monster. Here’s a clip of the first one

No. 4

3/8 Drive - The Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY

Incredible first jam highlighted by this brilliant section of blissful jamming #goose

No. 3

4/1 Madhuvan - Ryman Auditorium, Nashville TN

Might come as a bit of a shock as I’m cooling a little on my former No 1 and it dropped in my rankings.

That being said, absolutely amazing jam that I feel gets to the goods even quicker than the Raleigh Madhuvan. Dark Synth>Beautiful Bliss>Melodic Happiness>Raging finish. Here’s the part that puts a big smile on my face. #goose

No. 2

3/26 All I Need - Agora Theatre, Cleveland OH

I’m a sucker for a bliss section/peak and it doesn’t get much prettier than this one so far this year #goose

No. 1

3/24 Echo of a Rose: The Met, Philadelphia PA

Argument against: seemingly one-dimensional

Argument for: it’s a perfectly executed dimension

This jam steadily builds / shifts until you find yourself in a SF Wysteria like dark frenzy. Just when you think it has hit its climax, it somehow find another gear and absolutely devastating peak. It may seem like a standard Goose peak but is anything but.

Don’t overthink it. When the dust settles on 2023 Q1, this is the jam we will all remember
