I tried to hammer down the screams, particularly from one woman close by. I don't believe this show has surfaced from another source so happy to put this one out there. The horn section was on fire throughout the show. Not much singing from Levon but you can listen to this show and imagine a huge smile on his face as he punched out the drum beat. Amazing show. -Dan Schram
