Actually, this have been discussed before, i know.
But it's not a big deal (technically) to record these gigs and made them
avalaible online for exemple.....Just like PierreL said.

Now for my taste i am gettinh tired with Lovin' cup , it appears to be the
"help the poor" of the XXI century....

And I used to love SPOONFUL once, a long time ago, when I was young...
those tunes mentioned (lovin' cup, help the poor, spoonful)... maybe our heroes don't want to rehearse that much

@Kirk: it's good to be heard , ya know sometimes it makes me feel less lonely.

@Edpesco : hey my man , happy new year , et merci to say what i'm thinking, so our heroes they put some gigs fast with old tunes so they don't have to rehearse a lot ...... Hey they forget music is like Romans Arenas :
WE (the masses) Want BLOOD ,SWEAT,TEARS, TRAMPOLINE LIKE Improvisations and much more , I WANT SEPPUKU on stage ..................

when u look a set is 1hour and 20 m, ....................................................

Ok , i know , i know

Brrrrrr. You guys are cold!
But I get it. While I agree that Spoonful seems to be the new 'closer', I really like RFs arrangment of the old cover. I especially like the opening.
Our hero has a knack for arranging great openings to songs. (Up the Line, Prison of Love, etc.)

But since you mentioned it, I think Indianola could use a rest.
There, now I'm cold too!

Are the YouTube links different from the download posted earlier?

The download was taken offline before I could check it out.

And regarding Spoonful or Lovin'Cup...never liked those songs anyway, I usually skip when I get to them

"Are you kidding?"

No. But this comes from someone with admittingly way too much RF in my diet. Lately, Indianola gets the >> button more often than it used to.
Good song, just too much play in my ears.

If Indianola is about admiration for BB King, I don't see any reason to limit it or put it in storage. It may have no words, but the song has meaning. There are probably hundreds of songs written about BB King -- and he deserves every one of them!

I realize songs are taken out of the set list to make way for new songs, but I'm glad that Robben keeps finding new ways to play the older songs.
