Comments: Excellent performance, and a very eclectic setlist that included a range of off-the-wall covers ranging from Taj Mahal to CCR to Paul Simon as well as some "deep cuts" from The Who's catalog. There were a number of lengthy spoken intros -- I broke Roger's banter into a separate track before almost every song -- but for an 80-year-old vocalist, a 20-song setlist for an outdoor summer show is pretty solid. Roger's voice is still in good form despite his age. Outstanding sound and a very enjoyable listen.
Many thanks to Chicagoblues for taping and offering to share this. I was just the helper who tracked it. Mp3 samples attached in the comments.
