I remember the hockey boards where up for the Islanders who were in Washington. Mathew played Harp on Smokestack. This show kept on giving. Brought me back to many, many more shows.
I remember being surprise by the Truckin' -> Smokestack opener (as these were typically 2nd set tunes). Matthew Kelly played harp which was cool. China->Rider was hot!
A monster show which started out on high note with Truckin' Smokestack. China-Rider solid to end set. It was great hearing that when the bad had a lot of momentum. Much different then the typical second set opener. Scarlet-Fire to open 2nd set was solid. The jams between the Fire verses and at the end seem to go on forever.
You know the boys really dug this show because the encored with Dayjob just like so many other hot shows from '84 and '85. It became the sign of a great show to include the Dayjob in it.
This was the last show I ever attended. remember sitting at home in new jersey. I called a few friends, but they were gone, so I jumped in my car and drove to long island to see the show. Never met up with my friends, but met some cool people that I hung out and danced with during the show. Of course I never saw those people again, but it was good times.
