One of my college roommates, circa early 70's, was a big Dan Hicks fan. Here are the You Tube notes about the 2001 concert, well worth reading:

A live performance at San Francisco's Warfield Theater. Where, reunited with virtually every musician he had ever recorded with, Dan celerbrated his 60th birthday in style on December 9, 2001.

Over 40 remarkable musicians featured, including all surviving members of Hicks' pioneering San Francisco band, the Charlatans - George Hunter, Richard Olsen and Mike Wilhelm - as well as former Hot Licks Sid Page, Jon Weber, Jaime Leopold, Maryann Price, and Naomi Ruth Eisenburg - who hadn't played together publicly in over twenty years.

The three featured violinists are in order of performance : Brian Godchaux, David (It's A Beautiful Day) La Flamme and the one and only "Symphony" Sid Page.
