Bobtalk

October 13, 1978
Detroit, Michigan
Olympia Stadium
Concert

Thank you. This is a ballad I wrote a few years back, a love ballad about three people in love. (before Tangled Up In Blue)

Thank you, we'll take a short break here. We'll be right back. This is a song I recorded a few years back with The Band. Remember The Band? This is off our album called Planet Waves. Sold 3 copies. So, we'll see you in a while. (before Going, Going, Gone)

Thank you. This is a new song I wrote, called Am I Your Stepchild.

Thank you. That was Masters Of War, that was Billy Cross on lead guitar.

Thank you. On the drums tonight, please give him a warm hand, from Kingston, Jamaica, Ian Wallace. All right, on the bass guitar, Mr. Jerry Scheff. On the keyboards, Alan Pasqua. The one and only Alan Pasqua. On the lead electric guitar, the very dangerous, Mr. Billy Cross. He's the oldest member of this group. On the rhythm guitar, the man who doesn't speak a word of English. Ladies and gentlemen, from Tombstone, Arizona, Mr. Steve Soles. On the mandolin and the violin. The youngest member of this group, he's fifteen years old. Been with me five years. Doesn't smoke dope, drink whiskey, or go out with women. He's pure musician, David Mansfield. On the tenor saxophone, the phenomenal Steve Douglas. On the backup vocals tonight. On the left, my cousin, Jo Ann Harris. On the other side, my current girlfriend, Carolyn Dennis. And in the middle, my ex-girlfriend, Helena Springs. On the conga drums, from Detroit, the amazing Miss Bobbye Hall. All right, this is called, It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

Thank you. We're gonna get out now. Anyway, we'll see you next time. This song I also recorded with The Band. I wrote it a few years back for one of my babies. (before Forever Young)
