    just played on SiriusXM

    I've been perusing the show's I attended lately ... like the previous poster, I went to 2 NYE runs ... 86/87 as they mentioned, and this one ... guess I never gave my tapes a good listen .. this Aiko is sick ! Clarence and all ! ... one thing I recall was Bobby on 12/31 (right before Victim):
    "well my buddy tells me it's the beginning of a new dickhead ... I mean decade" (lol)

    21st century review of a 20th century show
    Lots of audience on this matrix rec. But it's a COLISEUM and arena too. I've never been to it but I have been to Kaiser 86/87 NYE and SF Civic 84/85 NYE. And true-to-form the shows that wind-down the year are hotter than the actual (hyped) New Years Eve show. In Tom Thumbs Blues, Phil sang some completely new-to-my-ears lyrics while Clarence came in early with some cool unique horn effects. During "Promised Land" (set 1 closer) Phil's thumpin' each string on MAXiMUM THUMP clarity. Brent n Jerry n Clarence clearly were having' a ball. To me the whole second set-list was a tribute to all of those Morning Dew shows that had Playin' , Uncle John's Band > Playin >then a Spaced > wheel or T Stones before a pristine DEW that we were fortunate to have experienced together.
