Santana at GGP (LT2) - Good or Bad?

What do you think of this performance (Watchtower, SW, Warehouse)?

I'm in with the first Bad

    awesome. granted, I'm biased because I was there, but still...it was awesome. I never would have expected Santana to come out for Warehouse, and I was pleasantly surprised at how much he added. Sugar Will was ok...I'm not a huge fan of this song, but I liked it better with Santana. Watchtower, to me, was the highlight. There was so much energy and the band clearly had a lot of fun during the jams. So much, in fact, that Dave held off singing the last part of the song because he wanted Santana to keep going. Never heard that happen on any other version of Watchtower.

    Santana honestly is one of the best (and very underrated on these boards) guest performers DMB has ever had.

    I can't stand the intro to SW and AATW with that high pitched feedback sounding shit he plays!!!!!! Terrible. He did OK at best with the others. I wouldn't care if he never guested again. Much rather Joe L or Jon M play instead that's for sure

    James Brown, Bela, Vushi, Warren, and G Love were MUCH better in my opinion!!

    Santana is overrated as hell !! He's always doing the same things over and over again.

    Give me Haynes, Mayer, Lawlor, Tim or Trey any day over Santana !!

    I think he is ok in Watchtower though... although he sucks on Warehouse !!

    When I saw on the setlist update that he was a guest, I was very excited to say the least.

    However, when listening to the tape of the show, I was kinda disappointed. Not as great as I thought he'd be.

    Watchtower is pretty good, but I had high expectations for Sugar Will and Warehouse. He came up short IMO.

    im pretty sure the Watchtower intro was stefan, hence its heavy sound.

    The warehouse with him is one of my favorites also. And he adds a lot to Sugar Will but the intro is a bit too long

    Sugar Will was AMAZING. Even though he barely plays during the song his guitar work meshed perfectly with the song.

    Question for those who know guitar well: is it the minor pentatonic scale that Santana constantly uses?

    Im not a huge Santana fan, its not that I don't like him I just don't really listen to him. However I liked his performance at Golden Gate quite a bit.
