For the first encore Joe sang lead vocals on three songs:
Overnight Angels (Ian Hunter) and Whizz Kid (Mott The Hoople) which were both covered by the Down 'n' Outz and also Honaloochie Boogie (Mott The Hoople).
Ian's former solo band guitar player Andy York also performed during these songs whilst Ian Hunter took a break.
The rest of the setlist can be seen below which included two birthday sing-a-longs. Ian and his band are currently playing multiple shows at the venue to mark his special birthday
The previous night saw Joe perform 'PSSOM' with Billy Joel at New York's Madison Square Garden.

The Joe Elliott Show - 27th April 2019 Quote
The Rolling Stones
"Couple of artists there very influential on Ian Hunter as he's progressed through his incredible career. That man is a force of nature. 80 years old on the 3rd of June coming up. Unbelievable. That from 1978 the album Some Girls is The Rolling Stones with Respectable."
