Foggy G, "The Songs That Were Played," We're Only In It For The Touring

1979: On setlists and tape covers alike, the opening solo from the 3/19/79 show is frequently referred to as this, implying (?) that this solo was later xenochranized onto "Joe's Garage". Sadly, I have failed to ever cue up the two and find out. Anyone out there know for sure? Either way, the opening solo in the 3/19/79 show is awesome! [Patrick Buzby confirms that this is NOT the JG solo.]

1980: Essentially performed as on "Joe's Garage", allowing for obvious differences in instrumentation, and with the standard deviation coming in Frank's solo. This is quite a treat, popping up once on this tour (4/18), on a night when Frank's guitar playing is particularly intense. Thus, without fail, Frank produces a stunning solo during this excellent performance of the "Joe's Garage" track.
