Later, during Not Fade Away I distinctly heard Bobby say, “Everybody ready?” at a point during the song intro when he was NOWHERE near his mic stand. This pic must have been made while Phil was singing Tom Thumb Blues (see photo's section of ) which was quite heavy for me as I and my concert going buddy Al were both out of our minds (and bodies.) I recall a tall gentleman, right in the middle of the crowd between the stage and soundboard putting his arms around his friends and he seemed to encompass 15 people with each arm. The moist throng voiced our disapproval of his weather forecast as he retired to the enclave backstage and a good laugh was had by all. As the crowd cheered his appearance he made a show of looking around at the cloudy skies and finally made a gesture that suggested it was too wet for a concert that day. Well not too stormy but enough rain to cause Bill to come out on stage prior to the festivities.
