Thank you everybody! I wanna introduce the gentleman on my right, playing the guitar, Larry Campbell. And on the drums tonight, keeping the beat, David Kemper. . Playing steel guitar is...His daughter and his son is right there. I think I wanna introduce them too but I forget their names. Anyway, Bucky Baxter, he’s playing the steel guitar. And Tony Garnier is playing the bass guitar tonight. There is a distinguished gentlemen here who came … I want to introduce him – named Alan Lomax. I don’t know if many of you have heard of him [Audience applause.] Yes, he’s here, he’s made a trip out to see me. I used to know him years ago. I learned a lot there and Alan … Alan was one of those who unlocked the secrets of this kind of music. So if we’ve got anybody to thank, it’s Alan. Thank you, Alan. (before Highway 61 Revisited).

Thanks everybody! I wanna thank you on behalf of Ani DiFranco, too, who was up earlier, and of course BR5-49, they were up earlier too, but these guys are gonna be here for a while of course. (after Forever Young)
