"Last night wasn't a show. It was a wake, and the sermon was given by
Rovert Hall Weir. Thrwoing Stones: Weir sang over and over: "Papa's
gone, we are on our own!" I have never seen such GUTS by any individual
like a few thousand people witnessed by four men. Especially Weir. At the
end of an unbelievable Knockin', Weir, in anger and in pain, tossed his
guitar to the ground and bolted stage right! The last verse included,
"Why is it such a damn waste/ I believe I'm Knockin' On Heaven's Door."
The Club Casino set up speakers outside in the parking lot for the
ticketless. A grand gesture. Before the set started, Weir said: "Well, if
there's anything our friend taught is, it's that music can be used to ease
us throught the sad times." Wasserman's Amazing Grace solo was indescribable,
with tears streaming down his face at its bittersweet end. I have nother but
the deepest admiration for Bob Weir. He is a true brother.
