I saw them at Hofstra in apprx 1976.They played for about 4-5hrs,endint 2am.I sat in the 11th row.First set was acoustic then electric.It was Thanksgiving eve.I remeber having to drive up to my grandfathers house in Copake NY the next day.i was so hungover & my ears wear ringing the whole way up there.I was getting dirty looks from families(mostly moms) b/c on my rear bumper i put a bumpersticker "Hot F***ing Tuna"...ahh the memories.thx for the post.
Interesting to note, Richmond Talbott, the guy singing here with Jorma, was an old folk buddy in the SF bay area that Jorma knew in the early sixties. The guy used to give everybody bizarre blues nick names. The one he gave Jorma was "Blind Thomas Jefferson Airplane". When the band was trying to figure out a name for themselves, Jorma said; "I got a name for ya." The rest is history.

"I'm gonna shoot everybody I don't like at all"
Who writes lyrics like that anymore? A gem from 40 years ago. Amazing.

@rr7firefly too bad it was written a long time before you think it was. Like maybe 70 years ago, possibly before Jorma was even born.
