Bobtalk

September 17, 1978
New Haven, Connecticut
Veterans Memorial Coliseum
Concert

I wrote this on the way on a train trip on the way to Mexico, San Diego. (before Señor (Tales Of Yankee Power))

Thank you very much. On the drums tonight from Kingston, Jamaica, Ian Wallace. Give him a nice hand will you? On the bass guitar, Jerry Scheff. On the keyboards, Alan Pasqua. On the lead guitar, dangerous Billy Cross. All right, on the rhythm guitar from Paris, France. Doesn't speak a word of English, Steven Soles. On the violin and the mandolin, this young boy doesn't smoke dope, doesn't drink whiskey, doesn't chase women. That's why he plays so good. We're gonna keep him just like that. David Mansfield. On the tenor saxophone, Steve Douglas. On the backup vocals, on the right my childhood sweetheart, first cousin, Jo Ann Harris. On the other side, Miss Helena Springs. And in the center, my ex-girlfriend Carolyn Dennis. All right this is called It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding. (after start) On the conga drums Bobbye Hall!

You're wonderful! So, until we meet again. (before Forever Young)

All right, disco time is over right now, we forgot our laser light show tonight too. (after I Threw It All Away)

All right, thank you! Caroline is here tonight. A friend of ours from New York City. She wants to hear this song. (before The Man In Me)
