"Have you ever wondered why?
There's a rainbow in the sky?
It's all the tears
That God has been crying
And it leaves the world
And it leaves the world
With a rainbow for a crown"
...... From Book Faded Brown
I found this in The Band website guestbook from 1999 (Note: Tony's setlist differs from the one I was sent with this disc. I don't know if he wrote these down in any order but if someone can confirm the setlist order it would be greatly appreciated) There are gaps in between so it is very hard to tell.

Great Danko Show at Clearwater in Massapequa, NY. Rick’s voice was right on. Rick, The Professor and Billy Read (on drums) gave it full power last night. The opening act was The Last Hombres (the club owner’s band) they did their own music and very well. Rick was in true form singing, laughing and joking around all night. The show lasted 1 hour and 45 minutes and they got stronger as the night went on.
