## Notes

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

Heh! Was talking with a buddy about this show the other day, and he pointed me to a post by michaelmee giving a somewhat different setlist for the same show:

<code>

Charles is very fond of taking some of his earlier compositions and reworking them into his present day set lists.
With that in mind here is my take on the music performed here....at least to this point in time......

1. intro
2. title
3. Drum solo/various Lloyd tunes quoted incl."Apex"/ into "Tone Poem"
4. Barche Lamsel (?)
5. Tagore
6. In My Room
7. Island Blues
8. Little Anahid's Day  
**Encore**
9. I Shall Be Released
10. La Llorona

Apex recorded on the early 60's LP "Of Course Of Course".
Tagore and Little Anahid's Day are on the 1968 live album, In Europe.

</code>

Of course, I'm inclined to think I'm right and that a bunch of those suggestions are incorrect, but who really knows?

Post-script:  
This was the last show I saw with my pal Tom Clark, who died early the following February from an especially aggressive throat cancer. From the early 1990's until 2016, Tom and I probably averaged 50-100 shows together per year, plus innumerable social events: dinners, hikes, vacations, ski trips, et cetera. Hard to believe that part of our run is over. Buddy, I miss you!
