Even if Hank and Bruce were going to continue it felt like the end of an era, it was a strange feeling after that show that's for sure. Some time later when it became clear that the Shad's were no more did that night in Southampton take on greater significance. Thankfully we had the 2004/5 final tour and 2009 with Cliff, but December 1st 1990 was a pivotal moment.

I'm sure there's a photo of them walking off stage at the Mayflower.
