Not yet at my house…screen says “Starting Soon”.

Just finished listening to Egypt Station all the way through twice. Not bad for a 76 year old geezer.

I’ve Got A Feeling…wow! Youtube sound is really nice on my system.

The End is here. Fun show. Mad props to Abe, great playing, shimmying and facial expressions.

My only complaint–not enough stuff from Egypt Station.

I’ve been listening to the new stuff for a few weeks on the Beatles Sirius channel, and have been mightily impressed with it.

Will this streaming show be available to watch at a later date?

He looks absolutely amazing for 76.

He’s been out there promoting this new album heavily - The Tonight Show, Marc Maron WTF, Howard Stern, etc.

I watched it recorded. Why was he kind of apologizing for ‘Blackbird?’ Did he screw something up?

I’m not sure what’ you mean.

OK, I found the answer in a review. Apparently he had to start over twice while singing ‘Blackbird’ because he kept mixing up the “broken wings” and “sunken eyes” lines. He joked about how he should know the words because he wrote them. In the edited version I watched he thanked the audience for their patience in getting through it.

Maybe the unedited version will be on YouTube at some point?
