    From Tom:

    We hadn’t been to Koln/Cologne for nearly ten years and the last time there was very memorable and nearly a disaster. A film crew had shown up to film for a well known European music show whose name I can’t recall and there were crossed communications so things were a little stressed. I remember a boom crane taking up part of the floor and being very intrusive on both the audience and Lucinda. It was also mid-November and we had been in Northern Europe and it was very dark both literally and figuratively as two of the people on our crew had friends commit suicide in the previous week. Very dark time. But we got to Cologne and opened the curtain the hotel and saw the first sunlight in two weeks. This time things went much better. It was a pretty rocking’ setlist and the crowd were right with Lu and the band Highlights include a rollicking Bitter Memory and a smoking version of Doors Of Heaven, which was played with some extra emotion as Lucinda had received news that a good friend of hers who had been very brave in her struggle against cancer had lost the fight. Margarets two favorite songs were Pineola and Lake Charles which Lu tearfully dedicated to her. RIP Margaret Moser.

    I didn’t know Margaret Moser, but RIP indeed. At some point I bet we will hear the new song about/for her, though I realize Lu may need some time to work up to that. Also, good to note “Seeing Black” as an alternative selection.
