Setlist 2/24-25/05

This was the first time I had a coherent idea about how the show was going to go in quite some time. Leann called to ask if I could cover Brokedown Palace. Thanks to lot of great vinyl I won in an eBay auction, I had all the music I needed for Brokedown Palace. For this show, I played Terrapin Station and Anthem Of The Sun.

After the acoustic Dead set, it was time for our dedication to Black History Month. Seeing as this was the last Thursday in Black History Month, I had to make it go out with a bang, so I played a couple of tracks from a show billed as B.B. King & Friends from New York City 4/15/68. Among the "Friends" were the following performers.

B.B. King (guitar & vocals),
Jimi Hendrix (guitar & vocals),
Elvin Bishop (guitar),
Buzzy Feiten (bass),
Paul Butterfield (harmonica),
Al Kooper (organ)
Philip Wilson (drums),
Stuart ? (piano),
Don Martin (guitar).

Like A Rolling Stone>Jam

Michael Franti & Spearhead - We Don't Stop - Bonnaroo 2003

After this, it was time for the Midnight Rant. Tonight's Rant was more or less a rave for two great journalists: Amy Goodman and the recently departed Hunter S. Thompson. Here are my notes from the Amy Goodman lecture on the University of Texas campus this past Saturday.



In honor of Dr. Gonzo, I played an excerpt from a town hall forum he held at Washington & Lee University in Lexington, VA 2/4/91
