I had gone to an Anti Nuke concert at the fairgrounds in Santa Rosa, CA. It was played between sets. Danny O'Keef was scheduled to play and I wanted to see him. He didn't show, but David Crosby did. I was happy.

In fact, both the 3 & 4 piece bands did it.
The 3 piece version rocked a little harder.
The 4 piece owed more to their live version.
