Taper’s Notes:  Another outstanding R40 show!  This performance deviated a bit from the usual Set List A/B/C progression - it’s largely a “Set B” performance, except that “The Wreckers” was dropped to make room for “Losing It,” a song that, until this show, had only been played live once - earlier this tour in Toronto.  I hope you enjoy listening to this show as much as I enjoyed capturing it!
