Widespread Panic
April 22, 1989
John Brown’s Farm
Oxford, MS

Set 1

01 – I’m Not Alone
02 – Driving Song >
03 – B of D
04 – Impossible
05 – Knocking’ Around the Zoo
” we’re gonna take a shocking break. But we’ll play some more for you in just a minute.

Set 2

06 – intro
“don’t hesitate to pick up that aluminum. Or anything else. Out in the water there. If you see any
floaters of any kind, don’t get scared. You can pick those up too.” – JB
07 – L.A. >
08 – Gimme
09 – Barstools and Dreamers
10 – Cream Puff War >
11 – Dear Mr. Fantasy
(Dave tells crowd they can’t play anymore, “according to the authorities”)

Encore 1

12 – Chilly Water
JB “Thanks a lot. We are gonna ride on.”

Encore 2

13 – crowd banter. Yoko Ono.
14 – Mr. Soul
15 – Can’t Find My Way Home

NOTES: ‘I’m not Alone’ is cut at the beginning; ‘I’m Not Alone’ just JB and Houser; there is a splice between the end of Barstools and the beginning of Cream Puff War; Chilly Water fades in.

Based on the cuts in the tape and taking into consideration the band’s banter from the stage, I am guessing that there were two encores. It is possible the final three songs are an encore from another show entirely, however, this combination of songs (Chilly, Mr. Soul, CFMWH) has never been played, at least according to the Everyday Companion.

“I like that shirt.” Two different people say this near the mics during this show… once after I’m Not Alone and once after Dear Mr. Fantasy. Must’ve been some shirt.

This is a relatively early version of I’m Not Alone and features slightly different lyrics.

Also, the crowd banter before Mr Soul is pretty hilarious. Check it out.

This tape may have come from Rick Sherman’s collection.

JB says “come see us and my new favorite band indecision tomorrow at the Cotton Club” after Chilly Water.

This supports the date on the label of the cassette, as Widespread Panic played the Cotton Club on 3/25/1989.

This show was previously listed incorrectly on Everyday Companion as 3/23/1989. Tape contained the label “I” indicating this may be from the first set of a multiple set show.

Many thanks to Tom Callender for the tape deck!

no encore due to time…

source: SBD

notes: this was my first panic show and my first show to tape. the first two songs are missing because gomer and I could not get the sbd patch to work for some reason… i was the only person to tape the first set, then two brothers, tucker and lange, showed up and patched out for the second set. i hooked up with them the next day and traded tapes, but i never saw them again… this show has also circulated widely, but the master cassette source has not been posted. i apologize for not being able to post a no dae source at this time… DAT transfers of the master cassette have been made, but only a couple of folks have them, including JK, Henry, and Archer. next night was new grass revival’s 2nd to last show! that was equally fun. thanks to all the old school friends – JK, chad, archer, and henry. good times!
