YEM follows a decent Eliza...

Opening standard.  Some surging in the pre-Nirvana segment (you've
heard them do this before.. surge the pre-Nirvana playing back and
forth.. crescendo/diminuendo), but not too severe.  Nirvana at 2:19.
And Page isn't terribly clean.. mostly chords.. he doesn't really
noodle that much.  Still fun, but not its usual self, really.
Uncertain.  Mike's solo-section at 3:05 is dark and scary and FOUL.
Mike employs a damply phaaat effect and just plays upscale and then
down again.. nothing special.  Trey's first shot at the Note is hit
but he makes the 'doc weep repeatedly, and doesn't really jam much
around it (and doesn't sustain it out).  Not much of a pre-charge
segment effort from Trey.  Sounds weak and shitty, in all honesty.
Second shot at the Note at 5:16 is played basically the same as the
first, and isn't especially remarkable at first, but gets a little
better.. there's a nice jam from Trey at the end, but still a lame
opening segment.  Just drags.

"Boy" at 5:52.  Page teases "Here Comes Speedracer" immediately in the
WUDMTF segment, but it is otherwise pretty damn standard, if not
weak.  Tramps segment begins at 8:08 or so and Mike gives the signals
for the moves on the trampolines as usual.  Page is dilly-dallying
around, and doesn't seem especially interested in kicking ass.  Just
tooling around here and there, until around 9:30 when starts firing
out some nice licks on the hammond and begins really tearing it up!!

Jam segment at 10 minutes precisely, and Trey almost immediately
begins to melodiously noodle.  Mike accompanies very melodiously as
well. Generally, pretty decent noodling from Trey, but it isn't quite
as profound as it could be (and often is).  It is still good.. just
not terribly ear-grabbing for YEM, imo.  Great but only typically...
until around 12 minutes or so when Trey finally starts passionately
soloing.  Some great jamming in this last minute, though!! =^]

B&D at 13:12 and Mike and Fish jam seriously from the start.  Very
funky and danceable groove.. Phhaaaatty repetitive licks from Mike.
Just slap that damn 'doc!  Fish accompanies quite well, too.. Nothing
amazing.. but at around 14:30 or so Trey lets loose a chord..

Closing WUDMTF segment at 14:45 or something. Cool opening to the
vocal jam, with WA-CHOO sneeze noises and DOH! bursts.. bwahahahaha..
very unusual opening to the vocal jam.  Doh and Wa-choo appear to be
the themes at first, but these soon segue into "Roger," which is vocal
jammed and harmonized on.  Around 17 minutes Trey stays singing
"Roger" to the "My Girl" melody, and the others get in on it.  Around
17:30 they are singing "My Girl" only with "Roger" instead of "My
Girl."  Total time 17:51.  Very good vocal jam, otherwise a C version
easily.  C+ rating.
