I always forget how confounding it is to try and keep a setlist for this repertoire … there's something extra infuriating about the combination of recognizable grooves with titles that remain out-of-mind. And writing dipsy doodle comments like “strong triangle groove” … well yeah, descriptive, but not likely to help turn up that elusive title!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
