11. One More Saturday Night (Bob Weir cover) **



The biggest highlight came

on the second night when Bob Weir

took the stage not once, but twice,

as he emerged early on for three songs

("Black Throated Wind," "Good Lovin'" and "Jack Straw")

only to return later in the set unexpectedly for

"Samson and Delilah" and "One More Saturday Night."

The appearance marked the second with Almost Dead,

as Weir previously joined the band

in Oakland for an acoustic set.
