I just walked in the door and I have to leave for
work in a few hours but I need to tell you all what an amazing show this
was. Far more than any of us fortunate enough to attend could have ever
dreamed. They'd play two or three songs and then answer questions from
the audience, and then play a few more songs and answer more questions.
It lasted almost two glorious hours! I *finally* got a chance to meet the
boys and hung with them for about an hour afterwards. They truly are the
most gracious people I have ever met, thanking me for for picking up M@W,
for coming out to the show, and just taking the time to chat with anyone
who was around. I've got *much* more to tell you all, but I need some sleep
(if I can wind down), so I'll save it for later.
In the meantime here's the rather long set list. The tunes marked with
"*" were requested by the individuals asking the questions. The first request
set it all off; when asked why they don't play it much anymore, Paul strummed
the first several chords, the place went nuts, Gordie shrugged, and they
went to town!

3. Puttin'
4. Completists
5. Wheat*

I got some great pics (I think) and will try to make them available

G'night all,
Scott
(grinning ear to freakin' ear!)
