## Notes

With just short of a dozen guys onstage, it was darn near impossible to keep track of the comings, goings, and instrument-swapping, so for the most part, I didn't even try to keep up with noting that sort of detail tonight. Sorry! Bearing that in mind, the instrument list above may have errors, and and annotation that a particular instrument was played in a given tune doesn't mean that a switch didn't occur.

My guess is that _She's Gone_ was abbreviated tonight in order to meet curfew. Dang!

Turns out that an [official recording](https://shop.markknopfler.com/product/berkeley-2019-sep-18-dtrw-live-concert/) of the show is available: very cool!
