Wow how time flys bye!!! Just found this show 4-1-2005!!!!!  WOW seems just like yesterday- complete 1st set all "encore" songs

 

Man 9 years ago- how long has this band been following me!!!!  LOL

 

I hear you. Hard to imagine that it was the year 2000 when I caught my first DSO show.

Set One:

Stir It Up ; Liberty ; Johnny B Goode ; It's All Over Now Baby Blue ; Saturday Night ; Brokedown Palace ; (Can't Get No) Satisfaction ; Terrapin Station ; Gloria ; US Blues

 

 

 

I guess they've all been played for an encore, not sure I would consider Terrapin an "encore song.

 

Man TR's setlist (StarBase) sure makes it easy to find Anything.  I put  -04-01 in Date filter box and encore in the Notes filter box and voila!

Check out 4/1/80.  Promised Land Opener > Jerry & Brent on drums, Bob on the organ, Billy on bass, Phil on lead guitar and Mickey on rhythem guitar and lead vocals.  Funny stuff!

At the 3/30 show, Jim Belushi came onstage and did cartwheels and vocal 'support' during US Blues.  I'm sure he was just high on the music......

Lmao. I've never heard that b4. That is hilarious. Mickey choked and bobby had to bail him out on the lyrics lol. I didbt see the need to play it again straight, but I'm a huge promised land fan. I could hear it every show and not get tired!!! Gonna have to give it another listen more carefully. The drummers were baddddd lol. Bobby was decent on keys.
