HEY!!! WHERE WAS EVERYBODY? Easily the smallest scene I've ever experienced on tour. We breezed into the lot at three, and went looking for the action to find that we were IT! Strange. Seems like many just skipped this show, which was their loss. It was my wife's first ever show, and she was hauled onto the bus by a groovin', bluesy set. The musical highlight for me was Ellis' solo on Estimated. Rainbow's Cadillac was also a very pleasant surprise. Keep 'em comin', BROOOOCE! The Other Ones definitely made up for the sketchiness of the venue . . . I've never been to a show before that didn't even provide outdoor toilets in the lot. Incredible. But I forgot about all of that when I heard them crank up the sound, which blew away the sound at Alpine. Can't wait for the show on New Year's 2000! Furthur on . . .
