Here's Blair Jackson's post re the setlist, taken from the Road Trips Vol 1 No 3 page (makes you wonder about the source of the Empty Pages on the audience recording...):
"Direct from David Lemieux, "with 100 percent certainty," here is the full and correct set list for 8/23/71:
Set 1
Big RR Blues, Playing In The Band, Mr. Charlie, Sugaree, El Paso, Next Time You See Me, Bertha, Me and Bobby McGee, Cumberland Blues, Big Boss Man, Loser, Promised Land, China Cat Sunflower> I Know You Rider, Casey Jones
Set 2
Truckin', Bird Song, Cryptical> Drums> Other One> Me and My Uncle> Other One> Cryptical> Wharf Rat, Deal, Brokedown Palace, Sugar Magnolia, NFA> GDTRFB>
NFA> Johnny B. Goode"

I attended, and taped, the August 23, 1971 show from the audience. Before the sound board tapes were found on the boat a few years ago, this was the only extant tape of the show.
I agree with David Lemieux, Blair Jackson, and Paul McFadyen, with a single exception. On the tape, in between Truckin' and Bird Song, is Quadlibet for Tenderfeet.
How come the set list does not show up CCS>IKYR and SM in set 2, but these songs are included in the new Road Trips 1 Vol 3 Disk 2 Song 1,2,12 ???
