I get it - looks like no buildup. 
I’m all in favor of a 3-nite stand though. How many of those did they play besides Julbilee in 2026?  I’m guessing zero. If I had the ways n means, I’d relish 3 str8 @ The Cap. No matter when it was. 
Just my .02 anyway

maybe about 2006....

 

"Started out to Richmond for the Cosmic New Year's Run

Four nights listening to Dark Star, expect'n plenty of fun

Hoping to dance all night with Starhead friends hanging all around.

 

Just bought a brand new Prius, gets mileage you wouldn't believe

But ran out of gas in the mountains while traveling  I-81

Outside of Possum Hollow but the car won't run on pure ethanol.

 

Another stop at a thrift store

Bess and Tim got to have their fun

Not much but good old clothes, soft and cuddly warm

I found me a big law book and largest French Press in the land.

 

Finally made it to "The National"

Talked with Sara at the Tee shirt stand

Chuck and Lisa were at the show

Connie and Gary from the far northern land.

 

Show got off a bit slow, Musta not had something turned on.

Second set was setting fire, Franklin's Tower and Terrapin

Loved see'n Dan Healy dancing behind the big mix'n board.

 

Fire alarm went off at 4 am, but hotel wern't burn'n down

Took forty minutes to stop the sound

Everybody was just standing round.

 

Next night in Norfork found DC Frank by the rail

All our friends were bounc'n high

When Lisa sang "Hurts Me Too" both Janis and Pig just had to smile.

  

Drove seventeen miles across the sea

Chesapeake Bay all around

Then up the peninsula, beautiful birds and trees

railroad on our side.

 

New Jersey roads ain't no good,

Bumps and twists and turns, Can't find my way around

I now agree with Herdy, don't want to come here no more.

 

Montclair's Wellmont Theater

Another beautiful show

 

Woke up in the morn'n, it was cold and windy too,

Big white flakes a fall'n, brightly cover'n the ground  

This Southern Boy ain't seen snow like this since winter of 99.

 

Hit my head in Baltimore, knocked me out stone cold.

Didn't really wake up till second set

But then things came around

Danced with some blonde haired girl, cutest chick in town.

 

When the show was over, we all headed out of town

Kira couldn't find the cab so we walked till break of dawn

Stopped in a 7-11, not much else going down.

 

Finally back in the hotel, don't know what room I belong.

Called up my wife, Bess, just to catch the number home.

Woke her out of sleep so fast, her eye got full of pain.

Had to take her to the hospital, the doctors were all amazed.

 

We broke off from the tour... had to get Bess on home.

Sorry to miss John's show, but later this year we'll go at it again.
