## Notes

{{:wip.png?nolink}}  **Whoa!**  This section is incomplete for now, sorry! {{:wip.png?nolink}}

First show of the tour.
Obvious jitters & nervous energy.
Weir aborts 5th tune of first set (I think the 6th is an alternate choice rather than a restart).
I'm surprised we didn't get to hear all twelve of the tunes on the new album.
The second set was really unfocused, as if the band hadn't rehearsed the tunes much (if at all), with Bob calling changes now and then to try and direct things one way or another.
I thought that the Grateful Dead covers were kind of weak, but at least they avoided any major train wrecks.
