Buffalo, New York
Rich Stadium
Concert

OK before we go any further I wanna thank the Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers for backing me up tonight. I say it's a rare privilege to play with a band like this. Anybody could sound good, even you. You'd sound great with a band like this. Anyway, on the keyboards Benmont Tench. Come on now. Now, Benmont's a keyboard player, and he's a great songwriter too in his own right. Anyway, on the electric guitar, Michael Campbell. Ha-ha come on, you have to do better than that. On the drums, Stan Lynch. Anyway on the bass from Buffalo, New York, Howie Epstein. I especially wanna thank Mr. Tom Petty himself, and of course I have my own Heartbreakers. I always did. Standing over here, that's Louise Bethune, Carolyn Dennis, Madelyn Quebec and Queen Esther Marrow. (before Like A Rolling Stone)

All right. Tom and I are gonna sing an old song for you. They don't write these kind of songs anymore. It's about someone who thinks they know it all. (before I Forgot More Than You'll Ever Know)

All right. Ricky Nelson, he did a lot of my songs. I'm gonna do one of his now, called Lonesome Town.

Alright, thank you, thank you Ricky! (after "Lonesome Town").

Make sure to state after (or during) which song the words are spoken.
