Mr. Stoger, our most intrepid traveler, posts the following remarks:
Just when I was packing it up to leave, after the third song of Big Thief’s, Lu was invited back on stage by frontwoman Adrianne Lenker; they promptly launched into “People Talkin'” and “Metal Firecracker” trading vocals, with the guys in Big Thief backing. Lu walked off to roars–and Adrianne then did “Minneapolis” acoustic, almost a capella.
So eleven songs broke the Big Thief “opener” slot record for Lu, but it’s fair to say we got 14 total Lucinda Williams-penned songs for our evening’s pains.
Lovely.
