What with all the folks playing on tonight's gig, it's surprising that I only made note of two trainwrecks: a “1st gaffe” at 5:24 PM soon after the show started, and “huge wreck” sometime in NFA. It's also interesting that Peter Rowan sat in for the entire show – playing guitar occasionally throughout – but sang only on two songs at the end of the set.
