Hi Steve,

The tour was the "Dark Horse" tour, in support of the album, but got 
nicknamed for obvious reasons.  I think I first heard it referred to as 
such in Rolling Stone or something, hard to remember.   By the time the 
tour got to San Francisco, his voice was just  gone...he sounded 
terrible.    I was really pumped because it was my first concert ever 
seeing a Beatle...and it was a huge dissapointment.

Marty
