Smokestack > Spoonful > Smokestack
On paper, this looks like a typical 1989 set list with one glaring exception. I'm really surprised that nobody has logged a comment on this page to mention it. There were 17,999 others of you there that night, right?
Though I was 15 years old at the time, this was my 8th show. Fortunately, I had been turned on to a lot of tapes in the prior 2-3 years and one in particular that I had been obsessed with was the 11-2-84 Berkeley Community Theater show...which was, of course, the last Smokestack > Spoonful > Smokestack prior to this one.
Man, what a surprise to have that little medley sprung on my impressionable young mind. I very nearly lost it when Truckin' turned into Smokestack Lightning, and that then turned into Spoonful, and then they went back into Smokestack. Yowza.
