I want to introduce the gentleman on my right playing the guitar, Larry Campbell. Playing on the drums tonight, keeping the beat together is David Kemper. Over on steel guitar is Bucky Baxter. His daughter is here tonight. We want to say helo to his daughter wherever she is. Can’t remember her name but I know she’s out there somewhere. There she is! Right there!! She’s gonna jump on stage you know, too. She’s gonna jump on stage and throw her arms around us! On bass guitar tonight Tony Garnier. I want to thank Ani Defranco for playing earlier tonight. She’s fantastic! We all know she is. And BR5-49 who we heard right here, who´s gonna be around a loooong time! (before Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat).

Here’s a request we’re gonna do. It is my fashion statement. I can’t remember who <mumble> sitting right out there. (before Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat).
