Playin' In The Band
Feb. 20, 1971
Capitol Theater

This is an early stripped down version. There's no extended jam, or Donna screaming, just the basic song, deliverd well!

Not Fade Away

Capitol Theater

Single kit opening, Phil comes in changing the bass line then transitions into a tasty, energetic Not Fade Away on a Goin Down the Road sandwich.

Truckin'
Feb. 19, 1971
Capitol Theater

First song of the first show of Micky's hiatus from the band. Billy more then makes up for his absense, providing a hard, rolicking, steady beat.

Thanks for recommending this one, Ernie! This whole show is on fire. The speed and persiason of this O1 is unreal! I knew this room well, and you could tell the boys dug it too. This show whold have blown a lot of Omaha heads minds!
Comes A Time
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

A solo that's as tear provoking as the vocals. This is one of Donna's most beautiful vocal harmonies.

They really change gears coming out of W.T Bridge, thanks to Phil who's really driving this one long along with Billy. I love the Gibson tone Jerry was getting back then. I think the acoustics of that room really added to the overall sound of this show. I saw a lot of shows, in the 70s, at the Music Box, it was like an old gym, a fantastic place to see a show. I wish I could have seen that one, only 15 at the time, though. This is a good one
