That freaking rocks, thanks!
It was a pleasure and a hell of an evening
Truly was our night to win
But the authorities insist on my leaving
Take care my American friend

I saw Levon with the remnants of The Band in a little bar in Charleston SC back in 93 or 94. Probably the absolute best, most high-energy show I've ever seen. There wasn't even really a stage, they just set up in the middle of the floor area.


Not exactly related, but this is one of my favorite concert moments of all time;

The Last Waltz - perhaps the best concert movie of all time! :D

There is no perhaps involved, it is the best!

More greatness from The Last Waltz, and probably one of the best guitar duels of all time after Eric Clapton's guitar straps comes loose;

I love this version of this song, with Joni Mitchell backstage doing the harmony vocals.
