We were in our usual place right in front of Robby and Waylon at the stage. They opened with Love Me Two Times, which had also been their opening number at Trenton and the second BB Kings show. Their second number was Not To Touch The Earth.  Maggie M’Gill was in the set, Love Street, and Who Do You Love.

A couple of guys (supposedly one of them was a guy named Tony from the Asbury Jukes) came onstage to sing Roadhouse Blues. It was weird; the lyrics had been written out for them to follow along, and still they screwed it up royally  ...  but, they were definitely having fun!   By the end of the song, some girl was also onstage with them.

Next came Unknown Soldier sung by Waylon ... at "that point" in the song, Waylon got into the firing squad pose, Robby aimed his guitar, and Waylon crashed to the floor, VERY convincingly. He resumed the vocals lying on his side on the floor - a'la Jim. It was a super performance from Waylon, very theatrical.

The pace continued, as from there they went into LA Woman, Break On Through, and then Light My Fire was the final number. This was a terrific show with a really enthusiastic crowd.
