Van Morrison

July 19 - 23, 2001
Dublin, Ireland

"Morrison powered through a rousing, rootsy set, which included plentyof Van classics, among them "Moondance", "Domino" and "Jackie WilsonSaid," as well as more recent gems such as "Days Like This" and "Back onTop"...by midset, Morrison was smoking--literally and figuratively; arare smile was clearly visible during "Real Gone Lover."...and foranyone who figured the Counting Crows invented them, Van sang those famous sha-la-las like only he can."
