Scott and others,

> 1. Was "Who Are You" still early in the set?  Like fourth?
> 
Yep

>>2. Did Pete talk a lot in between songs?  Or just a few words here & there?

Not much talk, but what he did say was very friendly and appreciative. Roger 
as well.  They were both knocked out by the sellout indoor audience that 
loved them.

>>3. So "Bargain" was played?  Not "I Can See For Miles?

Yes

4. Is Pete still jumping around, doing the pogo, & generally going nuts when 
he plays?

Yes. Not too much jumping.  He seemed to put it all into the guitar oike i 
have never seen him.  His face was wrenched with determination.  At one point 
he looked at me and gave me a nod. (I was jumping like a nut the entire show 
until everyone around me did the same).  As the show progressed, it just got 
bigger and bigger and alot of jaws were dropping.

>>5. Any mention of Entwistle from Pete or Roger?

Pete said that they are glad to keep coming back "even though there are not 
as many of us" and then added "but we are not alone up here!" and then did a 
rousing introduction of Rabbit with some history and then said that John's 
vocals were giving out on him, so that is the reason for recruiting Simon for 
the backing. Then he intruduced the amazing ZAK STARKEY!! very excitedly to a 
loud roar.  then when he introduced "a man that was trying to get out of the 
country",  Mr, Pino Palladino! to more warm cheers.

Jon in Mi.
