This is the only show I went to on Leg 1. Got the bootleg and have gotten most of the way through it. This bootleg CD sound outstanding!
As for the show, now that I've had a few weeks to digest it and am now getting to re-live it through the bootleg --- somebody said it earlier, it feels like Eddie is talking before almost every song! I mean that's overstating it, but it really is to the point where I feel it really interrupts the flow. I think he admitted doing it to rest his throat, so don't get me wrong, I'm glad he toughed it out to get through the show. The EB thing with the lady who raised money is cool, but there are literally like 5-minute breaks between songs at times.
"Out of My Mind" was performed decently well for how much of a rarity it is... "Severed Hand" seemed really great, and "You Are" was nice as well (one little Ed flub on vocals).
Night 1 was a severely epic show that left you floating.
Night 2 was definitely more slipshod and Eddie's 3rd or 4th day in Vegas is proof of why you need to get out of that place pretty quickly. Still a super special night!

Deb, the way you post these pictures every few days has me imagining that you're spending the intervening times in the dark room developing them in vats of chemicals.

Haha I have spent time in a darkroom many years ago 😆 with black and white and a color darkroom.
I just took a lot and I edit some nights and not others. I don't have many people to show my photos to so just drop a few in here sometimes

It's definitely appreciated, and I certainly remember the darkroom days.
