Thanks to Steve Terrell for the setlist notes on Facebook:

-Such a good show tonight. So much fun from him, the band, the crowd, everybody.
-This was my fifth show here. For someone based in Northern Cal, it’s funny I’ve seen him here more than anywhere else. He’s commented in multiple shows past that he really likes the sound / acoustics of this theater. The crowd tonight was awesome, vocal and into it. Once again, you could tell he was genuinely appreciative.
-Unique (first time?) piano intro here for Indigo Park that I really liked. Hope he does this more.
-Speaking of things I hope happen more: gratuitous Chad Wright drum solo here on the back end of Ecstatic was outstanding.
-Whatever happened here with Big Stick and Jacob’s Ladder is hard to describe, but it was a blast. He basically did the entirety of Jacob’s Ladder blended into the accordion riff of Big Stick. Maybe he’s done it this way before, but it was a first for me. I felt like one of the indicators I was seeing something particularly unique here was even both his tech guys on the side of the stage were cracking up and smiling getting into it. Plus, Bruce just walking around stage in the middle of it with the accordion directing improv traffic. Out of all the 8 shows I’m going to end up hitting on this run, this was for sure a Top 5 fun moment.
-He rewarded a great crowd with Show Goes On, which he said was requested numerous times. Such an awesome job by the entire band here.
Some “Bruce Quotes” of the night,
-Audience Member: “Turn up the vocals! We can’t hear you over here!”
Bruce: “Why don’t you just move right up here?”
-Prior to cyclone: “We’re going to do what I call a Robert Hunter Two-fer.”
-After having used some colorful language a few times introducing songs: “Sorry for some old @ss people here. My scatological musings. But anyways, here we are. I apologize for all my shortcomings.”
-After the End Of The Innocence > Halcyon Days Medley, “A performance born in the moment. First time we’ve ever done those like that. What fun”
-“Hope you didn’t come to this concert to hear a replicative version of old hits. We try to make them better.”
