    An excellent show at the Rams Head Live venue in the Baltimore entertainment district. This was a standing room show (no ticketed seating), but the medium-sized audience was small enough to allow lots of room to walk around on both the main floor and the balcony floor. The balcony level had some bar stools and small tables, and a larger couch lounge area, where the stage was not visible, but audience members could sit and rest and listen to the music, while watching TV monitors of the stage (similar to the the VIP lounge at the Troubadour in West Hollywood).

    Buick 6 played about 8-840, Lucinda about 915-1115.

    I can provide a partial setlist, but I was not familiar with two hard-rocking songs, so they are missing from my list. I looked at the printed setlist after the show, but I still couldn’t identify the two songs. The printed list had too many slashed alternates. Anyway, this is my list–maybe, someone else can help.

    1. I Just Wanted to See You So Bad
    2. Protection
    3. Right in Time
    4. West Memphis
    5. Drunken Angel
    6. Bitter Memory
    7. Ghosts of Highway 20
    8. Lake Charles
    9. Blue
    10. Fruits of My Labor
    11. ??
    12. Dust
    13. Seeing Black
    14. Unsuffer Me
    15. Essence
    16. Foolishness
    17. Joy
    (encore)
    18. Not My Cross To Bear
    19. Honeybee
    20. ??

    The last encore song was “Should I Stay or Should I Go” by The Clash. I’m trying to remember your other ??? song.

    Good work, Paul. that would be tough to guess #11, normally a transition from ballads to rockers. Not Are You Down or Steal My Love, I don’t guess. Great to note that “Seeing Black” got played!

    Open up the doors I think is the missing song unless I’m mistaken..

    I thought the show was absolutely fabulous… I hadn’t seen Lucinda in about 10 years.. saw her 4-5 times in the late 90s-mid 00s and I don’t recall her voice sounding that out in front, loud and confident… really impressed… I’m going back for more as soon as I can…

    She was so nice after the show.. they set up an impromptu table next to the tour bus and she came out and met a few people and signed stuff…

    That would be, “Doors of Heaven”, right?

    finally, the title, yes! And that “impromptu table” bit sounds new: cred to new TM Andrew there.

    I noticed in Ithaca last week that her voice was very powerful too. She sounded the best she has in years.

    Oh, LOVE the idea of a table outside the tour bus. Nice.

    I’m also loving the opener “IJWTSYSB”

    I’m singing that because I missed her last week in Cincy. 🙁

    well I can’t say if they’ll do the table thing anywhere else… who knows? but it was a dream come true to meet her and take a picture with her….

    I can’t seem to post picture correctly sorry to say..

    You have to use a host site. I use photobucket but I’m sure there are additional updated sites.
