The first show we played the standard 20 min. opening act set, after that he said, through Bill Graham, "Play as long as you want." We did 45 min. sets for the rest of the tour. The last night at the Fox Warfield, in San Fran., the sound man taped our set, through the board and gave us the tape. No, I don't have the tape. Rickie Lee Jones' road mgr. was our road mgr.
