The setlist:

Marie Marie
California's Burning
Downey Girl
Weight of The World (Christy McWilson vocal)
King of California
Abilene
Boss of the Blues
Pottersville (CW again)
What Am I Worth (Dave on the Strat for the rest of the night)
Ashgrove
Dry River

Encore

Man of Somebody's Dream
Que Sera Sera

What a night. Twin fiddles from Amy Farris & Laurie Lewis, and having the whole thing anchored by Cindy Cashdollar. That lovely woman had a smile on her face the whole night.

They both ripped it up during Que Sera Sera, and had a little back & forth duel going on.

Just a great, VERY tight band.

My faves of the night were King of Cali - great twin fiddles, Pottersville - Christie McWilson was in tears when she finished, and just a great Boss.

I hope they cut a live album of these shows.

Looks like the same set they did in Greenfield on the 18th, but no King of California. Cindy Cashdollar was the MVP of the show.

Laurie Lewis is great.

Is this an all acoustic group or does Dave plug in?

Lance, Dave put the Strat on for What Am I Worth, and kept it on after that.

We were six feet from Dave. Had a nice cowboy hat on, along with his traditional Blasters red scarf.

Enough with the fashion review. Before What Am I worth, Dave did his usual "there's two kinds of folk music, there's soft, then there's loud."

He really ripped it from there, especially during a long solo during Ashgrove. Laurie Lewis & Amy Farris were keeping perefect time with Dave, and I was thinking this is a perfect blend of rock, folk, bluegrass - whatever.

He got a little emotional before Man of Somebody's Dream, cuz he was talking about Gaffney. Great song, and killed it during Que Sera.

Cool!! I just found out that they're coming to the bar I tend at (Zoo Bar; Lincoln, NE.) in mid- August! Dave loves playing there; she's wanted to record a live album there for a long time.
