If opening night was a “Derek show,” night two was a Warren show, with big, torrid, powerful Haynnsian attacks on “Rocking Horse,” "Hoochie Coochie Man,” and “Black Hearted Woman.” “Don’t Keep Me Wondering” was an early, shimmering highlight; my buddy turned to me after and asked, rhetorically, “Who brings the house down on the third song?” Before the run, Butch promised we’d be hearing some songs they hadn’t done in a while; tonight two of them made their debuts. Gregg offered up a thick, bluesy “Get On With Your Life,” a song they hadn’t performed since 1992. It was a tent pole highlight of the first set; Gregg’s voice was solid on this one, and indeed all night his singing and playing were especially fresh and present, as Warren egged him on to take several solos. The second set opened with the two guitarists duetting on “Little Martha,” which half way through erupted into a full band version, out of which the boys ran right into “Blue Sky,” a bright and delightful Eat a Peach one-two punch.
