  3. Hello Arizona! Do you have anything of the Hillbilly Funk All-Stars, with Richie and Kenny from Little Feat, Vassar Clements, T Lavitz and Catfish Hodge?

  5. It's possible your source may be from me, I taped this show from the soundboard. I just stumbled upon this in my cd rack and didn't have the set list, I happened upon your page by doing a setlist search. It was a fabulous show.
