Thirty minutes later, the lights turn down and the crowd presses in close for the start of the second set. Folks are packing in somewhat tighter now than during the first set, but it's not particularly bad, just the mild irritation of being bumped and whacked by those dancing within reach. The yacking of yahoos who think that the middle of a show is a perfectly fine time to catch up on chit chat was significantly more annoying; fortunately, the talking didn't last forever. Somewhat more aggravating were the idiots who wanted to yell along with Tom during _Morning Dew_ -- most of the tune was performed as a really quiet duet with Marco, so this **really** upset the mood they were attempting to weave, but it's hard to fault folks for being overly enthusiastic. Right? No, I guess not. Next time I'm bringing ball-gags. | Thirty minutes later, the lights turn down and the crowd presses in close for the start of the second set.

| Turning from the distractions back to the performance, I thought the _Hey Bulldog_ tease towards the end of _Viola Lee Blues_ was a really cool surprise ... thus the inclusion in my setlist. In retrospect, I'm certain I heard bits and snippets of several other tunes throughout the night, beginning as early as the latter part of the opening _Space_ jam, but at the time, I wasn't feeling keen to stop and jot notes about every little musical tickle. Maybe I'll file a revised setlist if a recording of the show comes my way in the future. |

_Not Fade Away_ was a jolly choice to end the festivities, and like the first set, it wound down slowly rather than thundering to a climax; in this case, the audience picked up the slack a bit, chanting the _NFA_ refrain awhile before the house lights and PA came up to indicate that tonight's entertainment was done. | _Not Fade Away_ was a jolly choice to end the festivities, and like the first set, it wound down slowly rather than thundering to a climax; in this case, the audience picked up the slack a bit, chanting the _NFA_ refrain awhile before the house lights and PA came up to indicate that tonight's entertainment was done. |
