Similar quality to the first Chicago show (same location and taping equipment) but unfortunately some stupid talkers beside me, particulary annoying during the acoustic set.

 

A big surprise at this show in addition to the inclusion of Cowgirl In The Sand: The instrumental Sultan! From Neil's pre-Buffalo Springfield band The Squires's one and only 7" single. First live performance since at least 1965. Complete with Eric Johnson (aka the devil in Greendale) dressed up as a sultan banging on a big gong!

We saw him last night and it was incredible. This song,"Sultan", was the only one I didn't know, thanks for the info. It was really cool with the gong and everything. Having no idea what it was, I leaned over to my wife and said, "Holy shit, there's a genie on stage."

 

I thought the idea of announcing the songs with paintings was cool, but it sort of fell apart in the middle of the show.

There. I have now officially gone insane with jealousy.

 

I've only heard the Sultan/Aurora single once (on CBC radio).
