He introduced Dave Jacques and Jason Wilber as paid well, dressed well, and getting the longest break in the show.

19: Sins of Memphisto - no matter how many times we hear "Exactly odo - Quasimoto" - each time Prine says it, it is as new and funny as if it were the first time.

20: Hello In There

  You know, this song touches us all in one way or another, but now Prine ends it with a reverent "I love you mom" and I get tears in my eyes again just typing it, I'm going to go call my mom and finish this later.

Here we go again. and I think this just might be my favorite of his freshly wrapped up no name songs, for me it deals with just catching my breath with the simple things, and how we can't steal that moment back from the 'coulda shoulda woulda' hindsight file.

  21: Takin' A Walk or I'm Just Getting By

22: Lake Marie

  Oooh Baby we gotta go now.. And they did. We weren't done yet. everyone is on their feet, chanting, clapping, whistling. waiting. Sigh. Ah that's more like it, with a wave he's back- along with Pat McLaughlin. Man oh man. Pat is the icing on the cake here, he fits right in as the stray dog to the show dog Prine, Lost dog Jacques, and Young pup Wilber -
