hehehe just remembering ... I left this show early ... Missed Mule encore ... Little Feats Spanish Moon ... with Ron Holloway. Little Feat introduced me to Ron years ago. Had to leave early because Dr. John was playing across town ... I had an apointment with his soundmen & guitar player for an afterparty. Lucky ass name dropping son-of-a-bitch 8*)
