Set 2:
China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider , Easy To Love You , Ramble On Rose , Terrapin Station > Playing In The Band > Drums > Space [1] > Not Fade Away > Stella Blue [2] > Sugar Magnolia

Johnny B. Goode

[1] with Drummers
[2] Includes a few bars of MLB Jam chords prior to the Stella Blue intro. It kind of feels like Jerry is considering going for the MLB Jam, then pivots into Stella Blue instead. I've decided not to break it out since it doesn't really develop.
