The Desert Rose Band at the other end of the park. Chris Hillman’s California country outfit was coming to the end of a string of a half-dozen reunion shows, their first in nearly 20 years, but they sounded like they’d been playing 200 shows a year. Incredibly tight, with spot-on harmonies from Hillman, Herb Pedersen and the great John Jorgenson.

The band played all the DRB’s country hits, starting with their version of John Hiatt’s “She Don’t Love Nobody,” and also worked in favorites from Hillman’s tenure in the Byrds (a terrific “Time Between”) and the Flying Burrito Brothers (”Wheels”), as well as Pedersen’s oft-covered “Wait a Minute.” I literally tried to leave three times to check out another stage, and each time I walked away they’d play something fantastic and I’d have to turn around and come on back. I ended up staying till the end, of course. If this does indeed turn out to be the last DRB show ever, they certainly went out on a high note.
