Notes: Another epic Dan run at the Beacon. I chose this show for the deep cuts...The Caves of Altamira, Don't Take Me Alive, Everything You Did...songs that your won't otherwise hear very often in concert. The star of the night was the amazing Jon Herington. His guitar work on most of The Royal Scam songs will blow you away! Overall, the recording is very good/excellent. It was a somewhat boisterous Saturday night crowd. The fellow next to me did a bit of clapping and singing, but not much. There is a fair amount of audible audience conversation during the quiet songs such as Everything You Did and Razor Boy, but again not too annoying. I have complete video which can be viewed on YouTube and will be shared here in DVD and Blu-ray formats with dubbed audio:
