    I thought the Charlotte show was awesome – Lu, you looked and sounded great !!! Loved the new stuff – looking forward to the CD release & looking forward to seeing you perform on Letterman this week. Be safe on the road & hurry back to “my neck of the woods” !

    Not sure if this is exact, but this is the setlist I was given –
    Real Love
    Steal Your Love
    Tears of Joy
    Concrete & Barbed Wire
    Jailhouse Tears
    People Talkin’
    Out of Touch
    Little Rock Star
    Essence
    Come On
    Changed the Locks
    Bleeding Fingers
    Honey Bee
    Joy
    Righteously

    Well, Well, Well
    I Live My Life
    For What it’s Worth
    Long Way to the Top

    * I’m sure a “standing crowd” is a different vibe
    from a seated venue …
    none the less, I thought Lu & the guys rocked Charlotte !!!
    really hated for the show to end –

    Thanks LWOM. That was indeed a good show, in spite of the rather quiet crowd.

    The show in Raleigh on Tuesday 9/30 was unbeleivable. The show was held in the Progress Energy Music Hall which has great sound ! Looking forward to the new CD I have already pre-ordered it

    Hey Kerry,
    The opening band is Buick 6, which is also Lucinda’s band. So they play a set without her, take a break, and return to the stage with her.

    I would not say the crowd was quiet at all. It is a large hall and was, I would guess, less than half full. But the folks that were there responded enthusiastically. And I agree, it was a great show.

    Well, I guess it’s a matter of perception. On the fourth row I’m limited to only seeing those in front of me and most of them sat motionless. Some of us had to pull their hooting and hollering weight for them. Remember at some point Lucinda said, “Is everybody okay?” as if we were dead or something. And then she said, “I like it when y’all yell,” presumably because she felt we needed encouragement.

    Oh well……hey how about Lu on Letterman last night? And I guess Letterman really liked Butch’s drumming.

    I was fourth row left of center and thought the show and the crowd was good. It was a Monday night – Lu also acknowledged that while she was speaking. Hell, they were dancing in the aisle beside of me when they were allowed to come down toward the stage near the end of the show.
