Yeah, I have that on video.  Odd that Zak missed it.  I can't remember if Pete
gave a prominent cue or not; I'll have to watch it again.  Anyway, this all reminded
me that, at the Cleveland show, Pete waited a *very* long time before cueing the
end of "Baba O'Riley."  That was the longest I've ever heard him drag it out.  
Kinda cool though; the tension really got heavy.  "When's it going to end?!!!"
