Tonight turned out to be lots of fun, and a huge measure of thanks is due to the many participating musicians, who put on their best effort for a little as a tune or two while waiting patiently for their moment onstage to shine. I wasn't necessarily jazzed to hear every tune in the setlist, but as the players were definitely jazzed to be playing the tunes they selected, even the tunes that weren't favorite choices for me turned out to be pretty fun to listen to. Makes me bummed that it took me ten years to get around to taking in one of these gigs! My top choices for the night were the Allman Brothers Band covers … there's something undeniably magical about the raging twin lead guitar lines of those classics.

And if you're still wondering who played when, here's a chart to show that info; note that the lead singer is denoted by a solid smiley (☻). Of course, it's entirely possible that I screwed things up somewhere, either in making my notes during the show, or in converting that shorthand into the presentation here. If you think I've goofed it up somehow, let me know!

As Jon Hart and Bob Cogswell were recording multitrack, I'd expect to see this pop up on the Live Music Archive eventually…
