So friends it seems like it was a "winning" weekend at the casino's for
Stills during his 3-fer Casino Run in Indy and MS.
Reports coming into the site, say that Stephen was in fine form,
along with his regular cast of characters

Joe Vitale - drums and vocals
Joe Vitale Jr!!! - percussion
Gerald Johnson - bass and vocals
Michael "Kelly" Finnigan - hammond B3 and vocals
and of course
Mssr Stills.

They performed excellent sets of the usual recent (1998-1999) solo fare,
Woodstock
Love the One You're With
Helplessly Hoping
49 Bye Bye's
Make Love to You
Can't Get Next To You -
Finnigan on Lead Vocals (Temptations song)
Johnny's Garden
Acadienne
Southern Cross
Death Letter
(Son House song, with Finns again on lead vocals)
Finns covered this song back on the Finnigan and Wood Record.
For What It's Worth
Dark Star

and the kicker he threw in was a *traditional song*,

Man Of Constant Sorrow
First published in 1913 by the blind Richard Burnett.
Also recorded by the Stanley Brothers and others.
Played by Bob Dylan on Bob Dylan (1962)
Most recently is has been featured prominently in the hit film
Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?

Man Of Constant Sorrow
I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I'll say goodbye to Colorado
Where I was born and partly raised.

Your mother says I'm a stranger
My face you'll never see no more
But there's one promise, darling:
I'll see you on God's golden shore.

Through this open world I'm about to ramble
Through ice and snows, sleet and rain
I'm about to ride that morning railroad
Perhaps I'll die on that train.

I'm going back to Colorado
The place that I started from
If I had known how bad you'd treat me honey
I never would have come.
