OldNeumanntapr Notes:

Capps For Congress benefit. The complete line-up was Tom Ball & Kenny Sultan, John Trudell & Bad Dog, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt and Don Henley.

To provide a bit of political history for this show, in 1996 Walter Capps was running for the 22nd District of California and this show in Avila Beach was a campaign fundraiser. Capps was once again running against Andrea Seastrand (she won the previous election and was based in the adjacent Shell Beach, so this show had an appropriate setting). Capps won the seat in November, but he sadly passed away in October 1997. His seat was held by his widow, Lois Capps, ever since when she won a 1997 special election (although her district is now known as the 24th District due to redistricting). The seat is now held Salud Carbajal.

For the Jackson Browne set, “I”m Alive” cuts in as he is playing his guitar. For the Don Henley set, “Through Your Hands” fades in before the first verse begins. There is some mic noise (mostly between songs) and there is occasional audience noise (talking, screaming, clapping along).

This show took place at the same venue where the Avila Beach Blues Festival was held every year until recently. I had friends who were volunteering at this show and they brought my blanket in for me and placed it front and center, about 8th row. I couldn’t ask for a better spot!
