*This is the tune that's been used as an introduction to "Else" at recent shows. It's based around a C-Am-Em-G progression and has a terrific melody. It also may have had lyrics tonight.
^On Electric sitar.
#With guest percussionist named Rusty? I'm not sure, but I am sure that he greatly added to every tune he jammed on.
**This was a happy tune that featured Andrew playing melodic percussion on that new plastic pipe apparatus he's had at recent shows. He used (what were apparently) Sam Leonard's old flip flops as drum sticks. It was quite a sight.
^^Led Zeppelin cover, instrumental.
##Before the encore, roadmanager Tim brought out an old TV with the word "Obey" spray-painted on it. Brad used it as a stool during the main part of the song but during the outtro he grabbed a safety mask and sledgehammer and demolished it. It was a rather entertaining (but somewhat frightening) sight.

^ Van Morrison tune: "just the moment, just a memory" as to reason played.
* B.J's commercial theme without lyrics (see 05/22).
# conversation around B.J's. Let The Morning In revealed it is a composite containing a whole other song that went along with it. Written for Brad's Mom's husband who died to .keep his spirits up. might as well keep his spirits up our/ spirits up.
@ progression reminds Brad of Charles Mingus, title will likely reflect that.
