NOTES

A local newspaper had mistakenly misspelled Todd's name in a preview article printed the day before this show. As Todd introduced himself, he did so under the name given in the article: "My name is Tom Snider." Early in the show, an audience member heckles Todd who is clearly irritated. He calmly responds: "There's gotta be someplace else to get attention." Eventually the heckler bought Todd a Corona and Todd led the crowd in a favorite toast: "Here's to the duck that swum a lake and never lost a feather...this time next year may we all be together!" Other than the heckler-guy, I love the crowd at this show -- especially the guy who requests I Spoke as a Child before 45 Miles and the guy who keeps yelling "I'm happy to be here!!!" towards the end of the show (not as a request). Before and after the encores, there's a few good shots of Skip in the front of the crowd. [Thanks to Steve "Sparky" Hassenplug for some of these details]
