Crosby,Stills and Nash/July 6,1997/Burlington,VT

Ah....the days when $43.04 seemed like A LOT for a concert ticket. Boy,things have changed. I was happy to pay that price because it was CSN in the beautiful,intimate Flynn Theatre. My friend Dave attended the show with me. It took us about 7 minutes to walk to the Flynn from our apartment house.

A few things stick out in my mind from the show. First of all, Stephen Stills is a super-fine guitarist. I frequently forget how accomplished he is on that instrument. The other part that remains is the very emotional acoustic version of "In My Life". Quite a moment. I also recall David Crosby's occasional between-song banter. After one song,David referred to himself jokingly as a "very sick man" in reference to his sense of humor. A very fine evening.

Here is a link to the setlist of this show.  http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/crosby-stills-and-nash/1997/flynn-center-for-the-performing-arts-burlington-vt-3c571c7.html
