    Lefty, will be a busy week for me, between Lu’s show in Btown and an honest attempt to catch the HB on Friday at Midpoint. Thanks for the post!

    “Who wears Short Shorts”?

    Erika does.

    Lefty , don’t let Mrs. Lefty catch you watching this.

    This is from the All Points West Festival in NJ 2 nights ago.

    Excellent, LWj. Enjoy that show. Please tell Erika to get those hot pants to upstate NY sometime.

    Well, LWj…how was “Our Girl” ❓

    Our “girl”, wearing a bright orange dress ( not hot pants ) and the boys in the band put on a powerfull 40 minute show to a packed standing room only in Toronto on Mon. night opening for the Decemberists.
    Sway and the Mountain were extended versions.
    Lucky enough to meet all the HB’s and got autographs-including from the merchandise girl-can’t remember her name but she was born and raised in Austin, TX ( remember the “Ra-Cha-Cha” thread about Susanna?)
    Erika asked me how I first heard about their group and when I told her that it was thru Lu’s forum, she graciously related how they enjoyed opening for her a couple of times.

    Got to talk with the group outside as they were loading their equipment into their trailer.=No big “metal firecracker” for them-a plain Ford van hauling a utility trailer.
    Jesse (guitar) just returned from his annual vacation in Canada at the family cabin near Ottawa (my home town)-He told me they are fully booked until Christmas and are working on a few ideas for a new album.
    I asked Erika about their Austin City Limits taping and she said it should air on PBS in December or January.

    I would bet that they will be headlining their shows in the near future. The energy they put out on stage was great .

    Thanks Lefty for posting the interview with Erika, our Swedish gal, for their concert tonight in Wisconsin.

    All in all a great evening in Toronto. ( By the way the Decemberists rocked the venue as well.)

    Thanks for your report, LWj. A nice read, as they say. Sounds like you had a great evening. I do miss Mike & Kevin playing with Erika, but that’s showbiz (& love).

    Hi Lefty
    Just to keep you in the loop on our gal Erika.
    Nice interview in Chicago from the Lollapalooza festival.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfya01ZuLJ8

    Also a couple of back stage songs from the local radio station in Chicago are just posted on You Tube.
    Hey. you wished in a previous thread that the HB’s would come to upstate NY-perhaps Syracuse.
    I’m sure you are aware they will be in Buffalo this Thursday at the University.
    Even though I saw their performance just last week in Toronto, Buffalo is 40 minutes from where I live in Ontario and I’ll be there.

    A nice read on Erika from REAX.

    Erika quotes:

    “She can notice the influence of some of her heros, musicians like Lucinda Williams and Neil Young”

    Sorry Lefty- Again you are “left” out. You wrote on July 31st below:

    “When you see Erika, CB, wouldja tell ‘er please to bring it to Syracuse? She’s overdue!”
    Now the HB’s fall tour is listed on their web site.

    The closest to up-state NY is Toronto on Nov. 11/09 again at the Kool Haus where I saw them on August 3rd. I’ve already got my tickets.
    It’s not that far from Syracuse for you.
