This set was part of the Bridge School Benefit Concerts (put on by Neil Young). *A capella, backs to the audience, facing the children of the Bridge School who were seated on risers behind the stage. **Page on bass; Mike on banjo. #First time played (Cat Stevens cover, from the album “Tea for the Tillerman”; Trey and Sarah McLachlan on vocals. ##First time played (Ian Tyson song which appears on the Neil Young album “Comes a Time”); Sarah McLachlan and Neil Young on vocals. ^First time played (Bob Dylan cover); Page, Neil, and Trey each took a verse; Sarah McLachlan on guitar.

This show is a definite improvement over the night before. Piper and Roggae are outstanding renditions. Much like Hood, Guyute was an incredibly valiant effort, but a few moments just couldn’t be pulled off with acoustic guitars. I really dug the McLachlan stuff, even if it unfortunately showed off just how terrible a singer Trey is :shh:

I actually really like the acoustic Loving Cup somehow too.
