The first of two Box Tops sets performed that day at the now defunct (see 9/11) Center Stage at The World Trade Center Plaza. Alex, Bill and the boys are in top form and are joined by the Memphis Horns for a relatively short, but sweet set. Featuring tunes from their back catalogue as well as their only new song in nearly 32 years "Last Laugh" they are loose and have a full, lunchtime crowd before them. Captured on a warm and sunny July afternoon this was one of two final performances they would do there and have yet to come back to the East Coast since.
On a brighter note the band will be performing at the 2009 Hoboken Spring Arts & Music Festival this coming May 3, 2009.
