great show but nothing could compare to what would happen the next night

Phil and Brent ruled the night. The best two shows in a row for me.

As tight as the dead get post '79.

It was great to see the Help > Slip > Franklin's Tower again. Also a surprise to hear " .. Bid You Goodnight"

I thought this was the better of the 2 Hampton shows at the time. Listening again now, I'm not sure I agree. The set list in the 10/9 show was probably better. On my recording of this show, there is a minute or 2 break between almost every song in the 1st set. I think Jerry was still working on getting the MIDI guitar stuff straightened out.

We were standing on the floor maybe half way back, and during Bird Song when the band came back from the extended instrumental portion back into the vocals (at about 12:30 on the recording I have), there was noticable impact and increased volume, like "bam". The folks I was with recognized this also, and we all looked at each other, thinking "Where on earth did that come from?". It doesn't come through at all on the recording I have.

On this tour, I caught the 2 Hampton shows, and the 2 Charlotte shows. At the time, I thought this show and the 2nd Charlotte show were the better ones, but I think a lot of that had to do with my state of mind during the individual shows.

Franklin's. Every feeling of happiness you have ever felt is let out in that song.

Grate Dew! Jerry's guitar and voice are perfect.

This great show has now been officially released as "Formerly The Warlocks" in it's entirety, along with the following nights show in a box set.

The two Warlocks shows were among the best I ever saw. I happened to "nudge" my way to the front row both night (asshole, I know), but I couldn't help myself. I wasn't going to miss one single klink of a fret. Help>Slip opening the second set was amazing. Aside from the fact that they hadn't played it in just over four years, the amazing thing was... it came back even better than before! Phil's work on the change section was excellent, and Jerry soloed his ass off. While the next night was TRULY something from another realm, the first night was very special and to be treasured forever by those in attendance.

I was only fortunate enough to score a ticket for the second night. But I did get in on the first night half way through Me and My Uncle.

After the show started a few of us that travelled from Kent State were standing in front of the main entry picking up all the trash that became so common in the late 80's.

The amount of litter was disgusting.

There were about half a dozen of us cleaning it up when a security guard working the door noticed when we were doing, signalled to us, and opened the door.

A rush of posers tried to follow behind us but he must of planned this while we were cleaning because immediately a few other guards came out of no where and knew who to let in.

I never had an opportunity to say thanks to that man for the only time I was ever let into a show without a ticket.

So thanks for the memory. I'll never forget these two Warlock shows :)

the morning dew doesn't get the props it deserves.

Happy anniversary...

Woo Hoo promised Land!

Even though it's ten years later, Crazy Dave deserves a 'kudos' for doing something constructive when he couldn't find a ticket and subsequently being rewarded for it.

All good things in all good time
