Didn't move fast enough to score a ticket, but seeing the set list, I wish I had made it to the show. Perhaps "I Need a Miracle," could have been fit in somewhere? I know the lads wouldn't be playing "Man Smart, Woman Smarter" this time. Saw a Berkeley Community Theater show back in 1984 when Democratic National Convention was in San Francisco. Dedicated that song to Mondale's VP choice, Geraldine Ferraro. A little history for the younger Obama Deadheads.
