I'm not too confident about hearing a CDM set today. If they passed on Earth Day, a 10@10 tradition of much longer standing, I wouldn't expect any better treatment for Cinco de Mayo.
Let's get right to it.

And there you go: 1985. On the other hand, we didn't hear the same "It's your favorite show!" intro that they've used every day since Dave retired.

I noticed that too -- doesn't sound like a live one though.  I'd certainly hope for more commentary than that on Dave's first time back.

The Sound LA is doing 1976,   I'll head there.

No, definitely not a new set. This one aired May 17, 2007. And after U2 it goes downhill fast, save for one REM tune in the #7 slot. LA's doing '77 I think; I'm headed there.

BOS JCM, I'm the only one not bothered by the forced metaphors of "Justice & Independence" iirc.

having looked at the setlist, I can surely wait until tonite to hear the rest of it (if then). I'm off to 'LNG.
