After playing largely
After playing largely similar sets the first two days, Mr Sting broke out a bunch of different tunes for this one. I guess he noticed it was largely the same faces in the crowd each day, and that the GD mixed up their sets and did not repeat any songs during the first two shows!!! Fun stuff in the HOT HOT DESERT!

The best Vegas has ever had to offer!
I remember all the deadheads
I remember all the deadheads coming alive each night when Sting played King of Pain!! Sting might have played the same songs each show, but nothing was worse than CSN&Y telling the same jokes each night on tour, pathetic!!
sting did open up a bit. i
sting did open up a bit. i remember this show most: tripping on acid as the "best man" at my buddy's wedding the night before, and that weird/ off rhythm thing in slipknot that turned out pretty cool, and oh yeah, licking the plastic bag that the acid had been in, and still getting really out there in the hot sun at the start of scott's honeymoon. they are divorced, now, anyone surprised?
This was the last show of
This was the last show of the first run of shows I had seen in a year. And this show was GREAT. Bobby's voice was shot but he did his best. The second set was amazing. Jerry broke a string during Franklin's and the rhythm section kep t the groove going. A sick Other One-->Wharf Rat to boot.
Sting said we were the best audience ever!
Wish I could go back in time to see this one!!!!

Good run,
Sting was a disappointment that day, because he just repeated Friday's setlist. The following day he really shook things up, though.
Brokedown
This would be my last Brokedown. Its sad to think of some tunes as 'the last' when your used to sayin' 1st Shakedown or 1st Darkstar. I always loved the Brokedown encore. Left many-a-show with a tear ...
On to Shoreline!
A lovely end to a restless stay in Vegas. A haul to Mountain View with a stop through Hermosa Beach for some Ocean time. Thing of beauty to roll into Mtn. View where sis was waiting with room at their hotel room. Felt like a palace after the skanky Sands.
