A crisp-sounding master cassette SBD source captures this show beautifully.

Things get underway with a sharp, energetic Jim. The first Wilson of the tour follows, complete with the callout during the intro. A stunning Reba features some subtle DEG teases from Trey—just enough to raise an eyebrow. Landlady flows seamlessly into Forbin, and whether it was planned or spontaneous, Trey opts to take the small crowd on a trip to Gamehendge—minus Lizards, interestingly enough. There’s a tape flip after Mockingbird, so part of the narration is missing, though it’s unclear how much. Before Tela, an audience member shouts out to Page, asking who he’s singing about. “Sofi Page!” they yell. “Who?” the band replies. A fun moment. Tela is solid, and a strong Bag follows. The first McGrupp of the tour closes out the Gamehendge sequence beautifully. Hydrogen is a little rough around the edges, but Groove more than makes up for it, closing the first set with authority.

Set two kicks off with a well-played Llama—perhaps a nod to the Gamehendge-heavy first set. Jesus Left is played with heart. Fish (aka Hankrietta, “the shortest man in rock and roll”) delivers an inspired vacuum solo during Love You. There’s some amusing banter during the hi-hat hijinks, a fun little detour. The Bowie jam starts with Trey teasing something—hard to place, but intriguing—and then takes off. It’s a scorcher!

Before the encore, Trey thanks the crowd, noting how much the band appreciated the audience’s attentiveness. Even the Spoonman, who opened the show, commented on how attentive the audience was.

A double encore wraps up the night, with the second being a throwback all the way to 1903. The band closes with an a cappella Carolina, performed mic-less to a respectfully hushed room.
