Huey has been in this series a few times before and looks like there's still one more after this
this is apparently incomplete (missing the encores) and it has a few issues in the recording,
although it is a fine show in upbeat optomistic (for a few days anyway) spirits for entering the new year of 1985 (and a re-elected ruthless US dictator for a 2nd time in just over 10 years).
Huey wasn't very happy about that, but it was not even mentioned in this show, afaik.
Huey is very popular in the northern Ca. area and always puts out for them.
the crowd came to this show to have a good time and hear some good music, and they did that.
some samples of this show are in comments. ian
