Good report, Laf, good notes. YOu got it right; T-Bone’s country-solicited material apparently wasn’t getting used on the show, so he quit–only to return later I think. Meanwhile, Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys produced “Bitter Memory” for the Nashville soundtrack and that one episode at the end of season one. The song is OK as such, but obviously no match for the trio version of last night and several nights on the Lu tour.
From Tom:
That was one for the ages. Seven weeks into an eight week tour we have had so many amazing audiences but this night in Louisville was unsurpassed. We are all still blown away. From the opening notes of Can’t Let Go it was like throwing a match into a pool of gasoline. During the second song I saw Lu turn to David and mouth the word “wow”, and she had a big grin on her face. I could just instantly see her energy change Lu and band were completely lifted up and it it just went upward from there. And did I mention that this was a Monday night. After the show Stuart told that towards the end of the show he was having trouble hearing his amps.
I could go on and on but I don’t know what else to say than thank you, thank you, thank you Louisville for one of the all timers -not just from this year -but any year.
That one will be not soon be forgotten.

Good job, CB 8)
Thanks, lefty! Happy to take the burden off the Professor.
It was so cool to witness the history. 😀
The Professor, I might add, zipped in after a day of classes, and zipped away just as fast [we’re not worthy], but not before he slipped a cup of wine or two in my hands.
