UPDATE: San Luis Obispo County flood advisory extended

[waterloosunset94]

I think this is right:

Blue Chair
Brilliant Mistake
Down Among the Wines and Spirits
Veronica
Nothing Clings Like Ivy
New Amsterdam/You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
Every Day I Write The Book
Bedlam
Jimmy Standing in the Rain
Slow Drag with Josephine (sat on edge of stage; included whistle solo)
Watching the Detectives
Love Field
Radio Sweetheart/Jackie Wilson Said
God's Comic
Alison

(encore)
Sulpher to Sugarcane (including whistle solo after which he shouted out "one concert, two whistle solos!)")
"folksong" about a dog and Vietnam (cover of a b-side from the 70's by I didn't catch who. Elvis sang it after joking that this evening had everything but an animal act.)
Other End of the Telescope
All or Nothing at All
That Spell You Cast
One Bell Ringing
Man Out of Time

p.s. no flooding!

Oh, man-- I was *this* close to hopping in the car for the five hour drive to SLO! I've learned my lesson: never again let things like "sleep" or "I've got so much work to do" stand between moi and EC. Great setlist, waterloos., thanks for sharing...
