Anyone keep records of the length of each show? I’m gonna say the ’06 Baltimore show has got to be at the top.
The years with The Love Band was when she played long shows. They could just go on and on. I like the current band, but really miss Taras & Jimmy Christie (2002-2006). They had something that was intangible!
I haven’t heard the ’06 Balt show, but there are several that push the three hour mark…the middle show of the Fillmore ’03 stand, the September 2005 Dallas show, and the Essence live set from Irving Plaza in 2007 all are longer than 2:40. There are probably quite a few others.
the baltimore show in 06 was a little over 4 hours. there was
easily less than 100 people left when she wrapped up
with get right with god at just about 130. and it wouldn’t have
been the end except the venue was kicking her off the stage.4th and B in San Diego, summer of 2001, ran well over the three hour mark. Lu and band had played House of Blues in LA the night before and they have a curfew so the show had been relatively short. She came on stage in San Diego, and as Bo Ramsey said at the end, played every damn song she knew. That was Doug Pettibone’s first tour with Lu and he’s still around 7 years later. None of the remainder of the band are with Lu now, Don Heffington (drums) has come and gone over the years, Taras featured for many years but left when the Love Band disssolved and this, I believe, was Bo’s last tour, having been in and out of the band the previous 4 years.
