I watched it and thought it was a very flat performance. Something was wrong; I know there was an (unshown) false start to the show due to the presence of the photographers.
I don’t think it was weird booking her for a folk festival but it does seem that she’s heading a lot more down the ‘rock’ route of late.
I agree it was very flat. On the Cambridge Festival website there was a lot of negative comments so that was what made me think Lucinda picked up on that from the crowd and that affected her performance.
All in all, it’s a shame it was this concert that went out on TV here in the UK. One for the cheerleadersonly perhaps!
