Just picked up on that segue from Jim Jones to "Runnin' With The Devil" on the replay. Nice one, Dave.

Is this a Sweet song I've never heard before?


City Boy -- doing the best ELO initation of the set (unless we actually hear some ELO later).


I was hearing bits of Roxy Music in there, actually. And their singer kept affecting a Freddy Mercury inflection at times, too.


I did hear the whole set before I ran out of signal on my way to Sacto.  Belated notes:

I definitely thought it was a Sweet/Freddy Mercury impression (as opposed to a sweet Freddy Mercury impression).

I got that Jim Jones/Running With The Devil segue right off.  A good one indeed, but a bit painful.

And when I heard the backwards 'shit' censorship of Zevon, I immediately thought of John Tesh hitting the fan (& being atomized).
