On stage about 15 mins late. Senor abbreviated but good; Shelter started slowly with just D's voice and slide, and a much more sensitive reading than the earlier, country-gallop version with this band; Baby Blue perhaps the highlight for me, done chamber-style, bass played with bow; triple-epic closer a bit exhausting, though LARS had a little light and shade tonight. Back Pages a nice acoustic encore. Lyrics in general-- a few flubs, sometimes saved by a bit of improvisation: but final verses of both Joey and Pages were dropped, leaving a sense of anticlimax... seemed to be less harmonica and more guitar jamming tonight...but still a great show capped by a repeat of last night's ISBReleased encore with Elvis, only this time also with Chrissie H and Carole King (a real surprise) stage left sharing a mike, Carole dancing about gleefully. Meanwhile stage right, another microphone--in case George decided to come out??
