    Quite accurate a list, Mr. Keymaster. After the third song, Lucinda fretted about spoiling the dinners of city winery patrons with her downbeat songs, then spoke of the issue of whether to censor herself–before launching happily into those three days!

    All in all, this crowd was pretty unresponsive, but the Georgian Flannery O’Connor got a hand when mentioned in intro to lake charles.

    Lu compared “let’s get the band back together” to the movie Old School, which i am not familiar with.

    Good to see forum members easy mike, railroad, and mrs. railroad.

    Well listed, Sean. Night’s too long had a lengthy intro mentioning Patty Loveless and Robbie Fulks.

    In front of Metal Firecracker Lu told a miniversion of the story she used during the Car Wheels shows.

    The closest thing to acknowledgement of Ms. Lynn’s passing this week was the word “Loretta” in the course of Car Wheels.

    I finally realized that the phrase “Dylan and The Boss” is in the lyrics of “Let’s get the band back together.”

    The person seated next to me,one Laura from Nashville, called “Unsuffer Me” her “pandemic safe song.”

    One more big night to go. . .

    ATLANTA NIGHT FOUR SETLIST

    1 Blessed
    2 Something Wicked…
    [Lu says after, “I hope this is not too much like a church service. . . My songs are about the disparity between good and evil”]
    3 I Lost It
    4 Those 3 Days
    5 Drunken Angel
    6 Lake Charles
    7 Ventura
    8 Something About What Happens. . . [“one of my hit songs which never got played on the radio”]
    9 Overtime
    10 Are You Down
    11 Let’s Get the Band. . .
    12 You Can’t Rule Me
    13 Unsuffer Me [no Laura in sight]
    14 Essence
    15 Honeybee (false start, as Lu smilingly flubs some lyrics]
    16 Joy [David has to prompt her to sing the last few bits, so he and the band can do the finale featuring Butch standing by the drum kit]
    ______________________________________
    17 Faith & Grace
    18 Rockin’ in the Free World [Lu abandons the mike and meanders stage right, so close to the edge that tour manager Travis has to come out and keep watch]

    I believe I’m right that, of Lucinda’s 13 studio albums, 11 were represented last night, surely a record number. Throw in one sure to be on the 2023 album, plus one cover, and a diverse night was clearly had by all. Oddly, nothing from the Rough Trade self-title album was trotted out.

    Thanks for a great week: easymike, the smiths, laura, travis, and others I may have forgotten. It was wondrous.
