Found 2 items so far Lafayette.
A writers blog.
Doug P. was the bad boy of course in Jailhouse Tears.
The writer comments that a 1/2 full house might have been due to high ticket prices and a National Holiday in Norway.
Here is the full report.http://artistpicturesblog.com/2013/05/19/lucinda-williams-in-oslo/
And, here is a nice photo stream from the Rockefeller Music Hall.

I thought the sound was not so good during LW’s electir guitar sequence. I did not get to hear so many of my favourite songs, but there you go when there are so many truly great ones. I sure will go to the next concert with LW in Norway, which I hope we will not have to wait for for seven more years.
I’m a huge fan of Lu, but I have to agree with the writer of the blog. Her songs beggs for some dynamics to work their best in a live setting, but the trio ended up beeing mostly right in between everything, neither acoustic & imtimate, nor loud & rocking. When they took it down and low, I wished the the guy on bass would play his big upright acoustic bass, setting a slower pace and more low key setting for Lu and Doug. When Lu played the electric guitar and they rocked on for a couple of song to loosen up the crowd, I could not help missing a drummer to provide the driving force behind the others.
Instead of a trio trying to sound like a full band I actually would prefer only the duo playing Lu’s wonderful songs really intimate and low key.
Just my honest thoughts….
