Still pretty tired from the drive back last night but thought I'd post up the setlist for those who are interested. The show was EXACTLY 1 1\2 hours with no encore, but the band was in strong voice and the fingers were flyin' from the beginning. Bruce was a great addition to the band although at times he seemed to lay back just to find a place to "fit". He let Ricky lead the band but wasent afraid to take them to other places.

Up to when Bruce introduced the WWL (introduced as "a Other Ones tune"), I was happy with what I'd seen. There were probably alot of people who had come to see Ricky Skaggs and were like WTF is this guy all about but when the band slowly stopped playing and waited while Bruce and the guitar player busted a few minutes of Loser, that was strictly for the Dead fans. Thanks for remembering, Bruce!

Weird moment: I bought two tickets online one day. Apparently, Tigger and Becky did too. We had row 15, seats 3 and 4. Guess who had seats 1 and 2. Nice to see you both and it was great to enjoy the show with you guys!

What an awesome show.

Lots of seniors and lots of sitting but the band was pretty impressed when some of the ladies made it up to the stage to dance. I didn't see any tapers. Hopefully they'll record one of the shows for a live release.

You wouldn't have seen any tapers because Ricky Skaggs is anti-taping. I'm pretty sure that there were some stealth tapers there though so maybe it will show up on your favorite torrent site.

Great show - Bruce's hands were FLYING!

Really loved how they bluegrassed "The Way It Is"

Floyd - heard you and maxwebster talking about the "White Wheeled Limosine\Little Sadie\WWL\Loser\WWL" outside. Thought you must've been joking - that's why I said I heard them teasing Dark Star. I left for 10 minutes and this is what I miss - Motherfucker!

Oh well - great to see lots of familiar smiling faces even if it was briefly!
