Notes:

The Forbin’s narration gave a brief recap of the Gamehendge saga and included Wilson teases. The ensuing Mockingbird included a Rift tease from Mike; the Bowie intro included Take Five teases. Mike’s Groove featured screaming band members and Weekapaug included a Main Street tease. Brother and Cavern featured Carl Gerhard on coronet. Before I Didn’t Know (which featured Fishman on Bag-Vac), Trey introduced Fish as “Clifford O’Sullivan, a beacon of light in the world of flight.”

This is a good one. Fast and furious first set with a funky, quirky Bowie to close it out.

Standouts from the second set were the Mike’s Groove, Brother with a coronet solo, and a patient, grooving, mesmerizing Hood.
