Tonight's Setlist: 11/9/11, Up 'Til Dawn Benefit for St. Jude Children's Hospital, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, Pa.

"Whoa—what the hell is that thing?" said the '03 graduate.

Despite being back in the 'Burgh for more than a year now, this is only the second time I've been back on campus since graduating in 2003. It was for a good cause, though, the Up 'Til Dawn letter-writing benefit to help raise money for St. Jude Children's Hospital.

Well, I made a bunch of Dead-related promos for tonight's set, but it was really more influenced by the homie Bob...

Tonight went very well, especially for my dad, who finally got his Springsteen song in the form of my Father's Day dedication at the end. Click here to download it from Archive.org!
