Before the show my friend was speculating that the band was watching the game and that the show wouldn't begin before the end of the 9th inning. I predicted that if the Giants held out for the win that the band would open with We Are the Champions. Oh what mad fun this was.

Clearly they had anticipated the moment, if you see Trey looking at Page and Fish after the victory was apparent; I wonder if they had a loser/consolation song ready for the opposite result?

As a recording this first set isn't the best, but as a live experience it didn't matter, the place was electric for the entire afternoon before the show and this recording doesn't begin to express the energy of the victory cheer Moma-WATC moment and the next hours. Part of me really wanted to be outside watching the game as I'd watched at least 20 Giants games through the fall but no, the show was the place to be. Crazy way to start a 4 show tour that exceeded my ridiculously high expectations.
