NOTES

With Tommy Womack on guitar and Peter Cooper on bass. With this show being at a zoo, Todd tones down his language quite a bit since there are obviously several families with children in the crowd (see VARIATIONS below). This is especially evident before he tells the K.K. Rider story: "Is it okay if I tell you a story? I won't cuss in front of your kids." At the end of this story, Todd drops and F-bomb: "I knew that would happen. Think how long that took though. Those of you who have seen me before, think how long that took." Towards the end of the show, Todd puts a plug in for David Zollo's performance later that evening at A.K. O'Connor's -- he mentions that they will all be there and that "Tommy's buying."
