Concert

Thank you! That was Alan Pasqua on the organ, Steve Douglas on the tenor sax. (after Tangled up in Blue).

Thank you! All right. All right, this song I first played at the Newport Folk Festival 1964. They kicked me out of town for singing it. Anyway I keep persisting. I wanna sing it again tonight. I ain't gonna work on Maggie's Farm no more.

Thank you! We’re gonna take a short break right here. We'll be right back. Anyway, I recorded this tune a few years back with The Band. Remember The Band? Yeaj, we recorded on an album called Planet . Sold about three copies. All right, we’re gonna see you in a short while. (before Going, Going, Gone)

Thank you, that was Masters of War, and that was Billy Cross on the lead guitar!

Thank you! This is a song coming straight out of the book of Revelations. (plays All Along The Watchtower) Thank you! That was All Along The Watchtower that was David Mansfield on the smoking violin.

Thank you very much! Thank you! Ladies and gentlemen, I wanna introduce the members of the band to you. Please give the drummer a warm hand now, from Kingston Jamaica, on the drums tonight, Mr. Ian Wallace. On the bass guitar, Mr. Jerry Scheff. All right, on the keyboards, from the Bahamas, the one and only Alan Pasqua. On the lead guitar, the brilliant, sexy, very dangerous, Mr. Billy Cross. The oldest living lead guitar player! All right, on the rhythm guitar tonight, we have a man with great talent. He doesn't speak a word of English, but he plays his heart out. Ladies and gentlemen, from Tombstone, Arizona, Mr. Steven Soles. On the electric violin, and the mandolin the youngest member of the group. He's only fifteen years old, he's been with me for five years. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. David Mansfield. All right, on the tenor saxophone, the phenomenal Steve Douglas! All right, yeah, on the background, backup vocals tonight. On the right my ex-girlfriend, Jo Ann Harris. On the left, my current girlfriend, Carolyn Dennis. And in the middle, my fiancée, Helena Springs. On the conga drums, from Detroit City, Miss Bobbye Hall. All right, this is called It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

Thank you! We're gonna get out of here now. This song is a song I wrote a few years back for one of my babies. Anyway, we're gonna head out now, so ... You’ve been a great crowd, maybe we’ll come back. I hope we played a few things right tonight. (before Forever Young)

All right, thank you! This is a love ballad I wrote a few years back about three people who are in love with each other. (before Tangled Up In Blue)

All right, thank you, this is a new song I wrote, it's called "Am I Your Stepchild
