Second set was Live/Dead with Mark Karan.
hurt meh! two stephens 1 night
so, is tonight American Beauty and Workingman’s Dead?
hopefully they’ll do Europe '72 as well
Wow…What’s Become of the Baby and two St. Stephens in one show.
I’m thinking tonight:
Workingmans > American Beauty
Tomorrow:
Skullfuck > Wake of the Flood
Saturday:
Mars Hotel > Blues for Allah
that would be the show to be at
I just listened to the 5/13 show last night. First set is smoking from start to finish, and the second set starts out so strong with one of the strangest TOO’s I’ve ever heard. The NPC is not as tight as some version’s Phil played, but I think he tried to replicate the album version a bit more than he normally does. The high point has got to be the Born Cross-Eyed, with Bobby sounding like he’s 17 again. However, this Alligator, is probably the worst I’ve ever heard. Maybe if he would have let Jackie sing it it could have turned out alright, but it was just flubs all over and the band did really not get it together during that entire song. They definately made up for it with a really smoking Caution.
I’ve decided that they are probably not going to play Skullfuck as they encored with NFA on the 13th and already played TOO. We’ll see though, night 3 tonight.
Considering St Stephen was played twice in one show… anything can happen in my opinion.
Phils up to some more tomfoolery this evening…Workingmans set 1

^most of american beauty should be changed to all, they just broke the last two songs into the encore unlike nights 1&2
^yeah but i guess if they didn’t put the “most of” there, equally as many people who don’t know would get confused to think that Till The Morning Comes closes the album.
and those people probably wouldn’t be aware of the PhilZone site either so…
it doesn’t really matter i guess.
chicanery!

Copied from the PhilZone:
West L.A. woulda been seck
Electric Set 1: (Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, John Molo)
Come Together >
Jam >
Dark Star >
Loose Lucy
West LA Fadeaway
The Wheel >
Not Fade Away
Jeff Chimenti and then Larry Campbell joined in the middle of West LA Fadeaway, and then played the rest of the set
The Come Together > Dark Star > Loose Lucy jam played by Bob, Phil, and John lasted around 40 minutes (Dark Star lasted 20+ minutes). Because they were in a smaller vessel, they were able to go deeper into space during Dark Star than on Wednesday. The West LA Fadeaway was a very nice slow bluesy version, quite nice. The whole set was around 90 minutes I think. Seeing just Bob and Phil play like that was truly special.
=====
Acoustic Set 1: (Larry Campbell and Jackie Greene)
Your Last Letter ?
Sing Me Back Home
Deep Elem Blues
Instrumental ?
Warfield Waltz
Please Come Home ?
Goodnight Irene ?
I didn’t recongize several of these songs. Larry played all sorts of instruments. It was sweet and pretty short…
=====
Electric Set 2: (Phil and Friends)
Shakedown Street >
Ball and Chain
Big River
Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo >
Jam >
Althea
Mexican Girl
Stella Blue (Instrumental) >
Sugaree
Mark Karan joined at Mississippi Half-Step and played for the rest of the set.
Ball and Chain and Mexican Girl were the first Jackie songs we heard, both were very well played, concise, rollicking songs. Mark and Larry shared some incredible intertwined guitar work throughout the Half-Step > Althea. Stella Blue was very unusual and beautiful, Larry’s pedal steel took the place of the vocal lead. The Sugaree rocked.
=====
Acoustic Set 2: (Jackie Greene and Tim Bluhm)
Spider John
? (last goodbye?)
? (squeek wheel?)
Jackie and Tim sing together in a band called the “Skinny Singers”. Tim is a good guitarist, their voices sound good together. The songs have catchy tunes and quirky lyrics. Tim’s wife Mickey sang harmony on the third tune.
=====
Electric Set 3: (Phil and Friends)
Sugar Magnolia >
Sunshine Daydream
Unbroken Chain >
Jam >
Mountains Of The Moon >
Jam >
Terrapin Station >
I Know You Rider
A couple thousand balloons fell from the ceiling at the beginning of Sugar Magnolia, which rocked. There was also a giant mirror ball above the stage. The Unbroken Chain had a rocking jam part but was fairly slow in the verses, and then the Mountains was beautiful, but darn for an old man those slow songs at 2:30am ar tough. They must have known – the Terrapin was very interesting, fast and intricate, and the Rider closer was very rowdy.

Encore: (Phil and Friends w/ Mark Karan)
Donor Rap
