COMMENT: I've been spectacularly unsuccessful at finding out anything about who was playing with either Van or Shana tonight. Weird!

First show of the year for Van? Nope, that was 9/25 at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre in CO. 2nd Show was at Oxbow RiverStage in Napa on 9/28. This is third! Looks like the sets are pretty similar, but with some variation: I'm happy with what we got in Berkeley, though swapping Caravan or Vanlose Stairway from last night in for any of the three opening tunes would have been nice.

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!
