With swirling and shredding guitar play, the energy ebbs and flows, before culminating in a final ecstatic peak which hits the transitional D, E, and F# chords and > to "Simple." · 99 BPM

<p>Ghost contained San-Ho-Zay teases from Trey. The long, surreal Mockingbird narration offered an “explanation” for the evening’s lunar eclipse and contained <em>Star Trek</em> theme teases from Page. Mockingbird was played for the first time since Halloween, 1996 (135 shows).</p>
