With rumors of a March tour in 2014, I thought I'd be a good time to revisit Mike's first visit to Chicago with a solo band (he had previously been through with Leo Kottke as a duo). There's no Phish songs or notable covers, just a heavy dose of the Outside Out material. However, this iteration of the MGB featured an eight piece band (including a tap dancer), so there's plenty to see here. The setlist (via phish.net):
Mike Gordon, Friday, 10/10/2003
