"Legs" Larry Smith came out before the band and did a little dance with his ukelele for a couple of minutes. The crowd had to wonder what was going on. Then the real show began with the accoustic Smile & Easy Now. Layla was the shows finale following an extended version of Let It Rain and his introduction of his band. Then he came back for an encore with Badge & Little Queenie to end the show. Needless to say, it was quite surprising for the crowd when Peter Townshend joined EC on Willie & the Hand Jive and Get Ready. Double the excitement when Pete returned to the stage with Keith Moon to join the band for the encores.
