Known Flaws: There are a few cuts and dropouts throughout this show (especially during disc 3)- Don't let that deter you from enjoying this show. It is one of the best sounding auds in my collection.

Notes on this show: This was unofficially the longest non-New Years show of the 80's and 90's. If drums and space existed in their entirity, it would be a four disc show without question. I remember walking out of the civic center, looking at my watch and it saying 12:27. This show was also noted for the return of lovelight to the regular rotation, (they really only teased it on a couple of occasions in the couple years leading up to this one. It is Bobby's first full out lovelight performance(if you don't count the melkweg 10/16/81 performance and the etta james 12/31/82 one, 5/28/82 was with Boz Scaggs, and 7/7/84 was a 30 second interlude during NFA).
The show was also notable for Dan Healy's overwhelming(and sometimes obnoxious) vocal effects on Bobby's mic during Throwing Stones>NFA, I have never heard a show with more vocal effect knob twisting than this one and it makes for some pretty interesting and zany moments. ENJOY__Jeff M.
