Notes
  • Sue: $10,000 guarantee plus $2,500 sound and lights for the two shows, on gross potential of $12,000 - $14,000.
  • Maria Muldaur absent.
  • Traditionally, the setlist showed the gig opening with Cats and I'll Be With Thee, both making their public debut. But AF has pointed out that all circulating tapes with these tunes show them to be from 3/18/78, which moved as filler on tapes of 11/21/77a as early as the 80s. So we have dropped them from our lists as of 2/8/2021.
  • review: [net positive] Bedney 1977. Some sloppiness, but once ol' Jer warmed up it was memorable. He especially notes the "show-stopping" "Mission In The Rain", which does hold up well on tape.
  • JGMF: JGB: November-December 1977 East Coast Tour Rarities
