"I did mostly Jerry's songs in my own set, which wasn't what I had planned but I'm, frankly, not altogether responsible for what comes out of me when I'm up there. I try to let the spirit move me when it will, though said force has often got better things to do than wiggle my tongue and fingers. When I when I wandered onstage there were scores of cameramen filming me, right up against the lip of the stage. I guess I'm a bit thick, somehow I don't expect these things - at least not for my set. But there they were and I managed to look over their heads and forget about them in short order. With 35,000 other people to attend to, it wasn't hard. I played the venue like a club. Told them not to forget to tip the waitress. Found that a sea of faces isn't any more intimidating than a wading poolful. Of course, my sound was fluffed at the onset, as is generally the case, (test me! test me!) but I didn't know about it until later so that was okay. If I'm okay, the audience is okay. The love, as always, was palpable. Food of the gods. When things go wrong for me, it hurts them too. When things go right, we all swim in the same sea of sunshine. "
