    Present and accounted for. Just bumped into soundman Mark Humphreys in the festival hotel elevator. The early omens are good.

    Can’t Let Go
    Pineola [before which Lu makes clear that, Subiaco and Pineola notwithstanding, Frank Stanford was “based” in Fayetteville]
    Drunken Angel
    Crescent City [about “my other hometown”]
    I Lost It
    2 Kool 2 B 4 Gotten
    Lake Charles [duo]
    Are You down [before which Lu invites folks to stand up front “if the rules allow”–she gets few takers]
    Burning Bridges
    Protection
    Something Wicked…
    Changed the Locks
    Essence [which produces, five songs later with a tune from the same album, droves of people moving up front]
    Real Live Bleeding…
    Out of Touch
    Righteously
    Joy
    Honeybee

    21 songs in a festival set: not too shabby, eh. Lu started a bit later than scheduled, but finished 1:05 after the official list time.

    As your friend and mine tonyg might say, “more tomorrow.”

    Except to say (and both vmorris & lafayette are disqualified here), can anyone name Lu’s guitarist for the evening? Hint: his initials correspond to a common English-language expletive which cannot be typed without censorship here.

    The usual fine reporting stoger and what a setlist.

    Hint: Here’s a pic of the guitarist.

    Indeed, though pretty early on the west coast still. Between my hint and LWJ’s visual, surely we have a winner by now in the one-off guitarist sweepstakes. Further hint: this gentleman’s former band’s name (two words) has the initials of a popular long-running comic strip, and he himself has just released a record with his own new supporting band.

    Your hints are great stoger, reminds me of a couple of FF contests. Name Lu’s middle name and name her type of car.
    I’ll throw in one more hint.
    The guitarists sirname reminds me of a Model “A”.

    AHA…I was correct, stoger! The mystery guest guitarist did sit in on a previous set for a song or two, just this past year. 😀

    SamishSea, The prize is the respect and admiration of stoger and the FF! Priceless!

    While I bow to Marc, I wonder where Stuart was… Touring? Goofing off? On a bender? 🙂

    Respect and admiration I continue to have loads of for you, Mike.

    Good research, Lafayette, and good teasers lwj.

    Viv, Stu had a Wallflowers commitment, I do believe.

    According to his Facebook page, Stuart is out on the road with somebody. And Doug has a show today with John Mayer.
