Berkeley, California
Greek Theatre, UC Berkeley
Concert

Thank you. That's called Lucky Old Sun. That's an old song. Here's a new song. I wrote this just the other day. (plays Masters Of War) Thank you. I wanna introduce you to one of my favorite bands and I know they're one of yours too. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

Thank you. I want to dedicate this here song to Saint Angela I hope she's here tonight. If she is, ask her to forgive me, please. (before Band Of The Hand)

Thank you. Ricky Nelson did a lot of my songs, I’ll do one of his called Lonesome Town.

Everybody must get stoned. Well, that can be taken a couple of ways. Here's a song I wrote that can’t be taken but one way. I'd like to play it for you. (before Seeing The Real You At Last)

Thank you. All right, that was Blowin’ In The Wind, a time honored classic. Here's another classic song called Rock With Me Baby Don't You Know Your Daddy Wants To Rock.

Thank you, I wanna dedicate this concert to the memory of Malvina Reynolds. (at the end of Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door)

All right, I wanna thank Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers for backing me up tonight. And you do too. On the keyboards, give him a big hand, Benmont Tench. All right, playing on the lead guitar tonight, Michael Campbell. On the drums, Stan Lynch. All right, playing the bass guitar, Howie Epstein. All right, I especially wanna thank Mr. Tom Petty himself, a real gentleman. All right, of course I got my own Heartbreakers over there. That's Queen Esther Marrow, Louise Bethune, Madelyn Quebec and Carolyn Dennis. They been with me on and off since 1972. (before Like A Rolling Stone)
