Not expecting any surprises, but it's certainly one of Dave's more heartfelt sets of the year.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

sometimes it seems like history is just a big snake coiled on itself, and we are back in some obviously dark time, with obviously evil forces at work.

Sly oh My.  Is "Everyday People" substituting for "Stand" this year?  Or am I confused?

Yes, it seemed like I spoke too soon; he often seems to play Stevie at the end.

Enjoying the set, but not much time to post.  Glad Dave is throwing in lots of MLK clips.

Had lunch on Friday in Dallas with a gal from HP, we'd often communicated though email & occasionally by phone, so I was pretty sure she was black, but it was our first time to meet.  We had a really engaging conversation over a nice meal, didn't talk about anythingwork related.  When she was about 5 or 6 in the early 70's MLK Senior was a guest in her home & she still has a picture of herself with him that she treasures.

Hey, Dave is finally playing the live version of "Pride".  I've been calling him on this the last couple years.

The Edge!

ETA: Still wish U2 would get around to changing that one syllable tho'...

... should be "early evening", not "early morning"...

I don't think I heard that eros, philio, agape speech before.

I still have the first single version they released with a big MLK picture on the cover.  Great song.
