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.....

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Swing Auditorium

Wow! Indeed there is a Mountain! Loud and clear, if brief... Nice!!! Really love this one, takes some great turns....
Hard to Handle

Gaelic Park

Earlier, Bobby asks the crowd which needs to be louder, A, the voices or B, the instruments. The crowd roars with B. Like everything else at this show, this Hard to Handle is even more powerful thanks to them cranking up those instruments!!!
