I was lucky enough to meet up with them at the hotel in the early afternoon and had a chance to speak briefly with Danny Klein. He was very friendly and during our discussion said that he felt the band was playing better than they have in years. I had not seen them since the mid 70s (from 69 to somewhere around 77) I had seen them over 30 times and can happily say that he was not joking. They blew the roof of the place from start to finish. An unbelievable show.

Agreed– just saw them in Boston for the Saturday Night 3 hr marathon– they blew the roof off the place! Going to see them in NH next week– How was the crowd in MD?

I was there, fantastic show. The Fillmore is a great venue, great sound, you could here all the instruments clearly. The addition of the Uptown Horns and the two back-up singers really added a lot to an already great band.
