## Notes

I'm reasonably sure that Phil doesn't know _Cissy Strut_, but a reasonable alternative would be to say that he heard what the other guys were playing as a lead-in to _Good Lovin'_, and so headed there, whereupon they followed. This being an unplanned diversion, it didn't last especially long (no one was ready to sing lead?! C'mon now...), and so the jam instead veered back into _Shakedown_ for resolution. Musical catastrophe narrowly averted!

During _New Speedway Boogie_, I thought I heard the jam as heading towards _the Other One_, but it ended up as merely a flirtation, not even a serious tease.

I was expecting a bit of primal Dead for Bicycle day. While _Mason's Children_ was the closest we got, that one certainly fits the call for psychedelic weirdness! Following up with _Lucy in the Sky_ was a terrific surprise -- I can't remember the last time I've heard that from Phil. Gotta be at least a few years!

And while it was getting a little chilly, what with the ocean air pushing fog through the bay, it felt like we got a special bonus with the last two songs, making today the longest show yet from Phil this year.
