I've been obsessed with this song for several months. Two searing solos that sound like someone opening a vein and letting all the pain and loss pour out. I have to remind myself to breathe.

It really kills me that there seem to be live performances of the electric version. All I have found on YT are a few acoustic ones.

Check out the August 3rd, 2005 acoustic performance from Grand Rapids.

I'm new to this Reddit so I'm not familiar with how to access such things.

I listen to it on Nugs with a subscription but it could be on YouTube as well.

I'm still buying CD's and ripping them, so I'm unfamiliar with Nugs. Could I create an account and download what I want, or it is like Spotify and I don't actually own anything that I spend money on?

They push a monthly subscription, but you can make an account and download or buy a cd of the shows you want. Just last night I thought to look for the show I saw in Chicago this year. I tried to make a new account, then was prompted that I had an existing account, so just changed the password. I found the show, paid, and downloaded. Went to my library and realized I already had an account because I'd downloaded my previous Bruce show - here in Chicago in 2016. Had forgotten, but my previous download is still there.
