Already in Chicago-ish. Couldn’t get tickets. The crowds look amazing, the stadium is packed, and the setlists look wonderful. My buddy is real bummed that we have no tickets, and I told him that we were in good company, with Jerry, among the people that aren’t attending.

US Blues Empire State Building lightshow. I guess those in the stadium saw this played on the bigscreens during the live performance. Wow!

I didn’t get to Chicago, my cousin got married on the 4th, but I heard the San Francisco shows online. I did get to the Neil young show in Milwaukee last night , though!

From what I heard in the SF shows, it seemed Trey was really pushing the band. Hornsby did a good job of keeping up but Bob and Phil sounded like they were struggling a little.
