Maybe just another Wheel, but this show, especially after the Lay Me Down, felt to be all about recovering after saying good-bye to Brent.....

Yeah, the reprise is nuts, but so is this whole entire show.
Werewolves of London
May 5, 1978
Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

One and only time in New Hampshire (pretty sure...). With a great Dire Wolf earlier in the evening and this encore, were there rumors of something prowling in the woods of Hanover this Friday night....?

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

Gorgeous. Out of wild NFA, into wild Around, into wild and groovy Werewolves encore. Wild.

Yes! Classic Americana in the Boogie Down Bronx! Like everything at this show, one of the best versions of 1971.

Great one too, as has been said, right out of a really, really great China-Rider. Really loving this show....!
