Speaking of jams becoming songs, I think the fast section of Gin has some Birds Of A Feather hints (I'm guessing others have noticed it but I didn't find mention of it in a quick search).
Great post, though I must say, I LOVE BEK and this is probably my favoirite version. It's the only repeat during this triad of shows, and it appears in back-to-back sets here. I think they (or maybe Trey?) loved the way they tore into 11/22's shorter version, and offered a more extended outing on the same model here. There are basically only 3 BEK's that are this explosive: these two, plus 11/28.
Also, either that first link is off, or you mean something other than Twist, since there was no Twist played on 11/16! Probably you mean 11/14? Though I don't know what was teased in that Twist...
Terrific post — I completely agree with you about Black Eyed Katy and Fall '97. I do think the lyrics ultimately gave it a nice structure and made it a fun tune, especially with all four of them singing...sort of a trademark for the era and matches nicely with other great first set songs like LxL and Roggae. The song really got its legs at the beginning of the summer '98 tour when they played it nearly every night along the west coast.

Anyway, loving the project!.

Gah, I meant the Timber with the Frankie Says pre-tease. Fixed!
