$ Andrew Eklund on Bass * Jason Fladager on Guitar/Vocals ^ Bill Cutler on Guitar/Vocals & Dean Magraw on Guitar/Vocals % Warren Boes on Guitar/Vocals @ Peter Rowan on Guitar/Vocals ! Jill Mikelson on Vocals Show Notes: Peter Rowan and God Johnson opening! First note: "Disc 2" is an acoustic set played by Terry V, Mark G, Peter Rowan and Bill Cutler for the VIPs. My rig was already setup in the other room and captured it well enough for me to put it up here. Any artifacts in the sound are from the extreme enhancement I had to employ since, like I said, the mics were in a completely different room :) On to the show! Nearly 3.5 hours of a single set + encore! They had a plan to break but song lengths and whatever else led to that plan being changed. SO much great jamming and sit-ins by former members of the band (Andy Eklund and Jason Fladager) as well as a few musical friends from over the years (Dead Magraw, Peter Rowan, Warren Boes, Bill Cutler and Jill Henderson). The set got pretty mellow for a few of Peter's originals but all well played. This was a fitting 25th anniversary show for a band I've called friends and sometimes employers for 24. This band gave me my intriduction to the jamband scene and the way of life I live today. Ever grateful. Last but by far not least... A few hours after this show's completion we lost one of the biggest hearts in our scene. Andrea "Stella Blue" Nelson was a good friend and always there for the music and anyone who needed her. This recording and show are dedicated to her memory. Enjoy! -Nate

This recording is Dedicated to Stella Blue (Andrea Nelson) Sad to say we did not get to talk on this night but glad we exchanged smiles from across the dance floor one last time. Thank you for all the conversations that we did have and sorry we didn't find time for me to come see your giant poster collection from the concerts you had been to that we had recently spoke about at the Cabooze. I'm thankful that you where always courteous to not ramble on in conversation to me or others under my mics while the music was playing, you always had the respect to come talk to me before or after the live music or during change overs / set breaks............... You Shall be missed on our Minneapolis Music Scene R.I.P. Stella Blue
