## Notes

Closing out the Banjo Stage on Saturday night, Steve Earle delivered a ripping set. Really fun! And with most of the crowd beat down by the long day's heat, it was a surprisingly mellow experience. I'm very happy that I decided to spend by day there!!

Steve didn't seem to be in such of a great space personally -- he made multiple unhappy references to his divorce-in-progress -- but I'm willing to let it slide as venting when it hurts. Hopefully he'll be in a happier space when we catch him further on down the road.

Back on the set, I thought the rabble-rousing one-two punch of the encore was amazing. Seriously rocking tunes with an important message, trying to get folks riled up.

Thanks to the folks posting at [[http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/steve-earle/2014/golden-gate-park-san-francisco-ca-43cf5bdb.html|setlist.fm]] for the help correcting and confirming some of my guesses!
