Oxfordtown Setlist

1 Pineola
2 Car Wheels
3 Drunken A
4 West Memphis
5 Jackson {the massive applause after almost drowns out Lu’s comment about being back on “home turf”}
6 Bitter Memory (Lu reports everybody’s “good shape and good spirits” despite the grueling tour]
7 Ghosts {Lu tells us we’re the first audience to really “get” some of the lyrics of the second verse]
8 Compassion (with a shout-out to Square Books of Oxford–also, Lu says Neil Young’s lyric about Richard Nixon came to her mind as she was singing; she then wonders if “compassion” dare be extended to Donald Trump also]
9 Lake C
10 Greenville (!!!!!!!!!!!)
11 Doors of hEAVEN
12 Protection [curiously, Justin carries the songbook off right before this, leaving a single page]
13 Dustin (songbook restored via Justin]
14 2 Kool {lu admits she went off the setlist for this one, hence shedding light on the Book]
15 Changed the L
16 Essence
17 Honeybee

18 Stop Breakin’ Down
19 Joy [during which an idiot leaps on stage, to be shooed off by Stuart and Justin, though Lu smiles through it all: later we learn he tried to get back in eventually after Security booted him: Lu says “we’ve seen it all” and “I kind of feel sorry for the guy]
20 Get Right

Small crowd but fine show: kudos to novelist Tom Franklin and his wife Beth Ann Fenneally (sp?), a poet and director of Ole Miss’ MFA program, who not only attended but got back stage. But what of Shannon McNally, who was expected by the Overbys?
