Bobtalk

June 17, 1986
Costa Mesa, California
Pacific Amphitheatre
Concert

Thank you. All right, everybody must get stoned. That can be taken a bunch of ways. Here's one of my rare songs that can be taken but one way. (before Seeing The Real You At Last)

Thank you. Thank you, Ricky. All right. Everybody dedicating songs to Al Kooper tonight, so I wanna do this one song too. (before Ballad Of A Thin Man)

Thank you. I wanna introduce Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, thank you for backing me up tonight. I say what a privilege to be able to play with this band. On the keyboards, Benmont Tench. On the guitar, Michael Campbell. On the drums, Stan Lynch. Playing bass guitar, Howie Epstein. I also wanna thank Mr. Tom Petty himself. Of course I got my own Heartbreakers over there. That's Queen Esther Marrow, Louise Bethune, Madelyn Quebec and Carolyn Dennis. (after In The Garden)

All right, thank you. We're gonna introduce the man right now, everybody, been singing about tonight. Who's that? I will have a guest performer playing on the keyboards tonight. He played with me on an original recording actually. Al Kooper, give him a big hand. I love the man and I want you to too. Al Kooper. Maybe we can get him even to sing one. Here we go. All right, here we go. (before Like A Rolling Stone)

All right, one more last song. This is our last song. I'm gonna play this before we go into overtime. (before In The Garden)

All right thank you. I guess that was an old song. Here's an even older song. We like old songs. I do. OK, this is called Rock With Me Baby, Don't You Know Your Daddy Wants To Rock.
