% - With a “Walk The Dinosaur” (Was, Not Was) Tease (MB). Song included the 5 horn players leaving the stage & playing on the GA Floor as the crowd & Joe kept the NFA Beat. After the march thru the crowd, the horn section returned to stage, where some of the band rejoined them to finish the tune.
^# - The Band cover, first time played by Almost Dead. With the five piece horn section, playing the arrangements that Allen Toussaint wrote for The Band’s version from “Rock of Ages”. (The same Toussaint horn arrangements were also featured on the Last Waltz version of the song.)
