    Not much luck stoger in searching for info.
    I did find lots of great photos for the Flynn Center in Burlington.
    Photos by Nanci.
    Scroll thru the photos and on the 5th line there is a guitarist to the left of Lu that I do not recognize. You can click on any photo for the big picture.

    As for Boarding House Park in Lowell, MA nada found.
    A far cry from her show there in July, 08 wherein many FF members and newspaper articles reported a bit of a Lucinda melt down when someone shouted out Pink Floyd requests.

    A review from Lowell.
    First off one of the many excellent photos.

    Secondly, a quote from Lefty recently as written by Dave Barry.
    “We journalists make it a point to know very little about an extremely wide variety of topics; this is how we stay objective.” – – Dave Barry

    Quotes from the review follow.

    Each member of the band got a chance to solo and all but David provided backing
    vocals, but this show was all Lucinda.

    She told us she’s releasing a new album later this year, and played a couple of songs from it. One is titled ‘Copenhagen’ and it’s beautiful. It’s about being in Copenhagen when she got news that a friend had died suddenly, and the feelings she had being so far from home.

    I did not know that her father is the poet Miller Williams. Lucinda related a story that she has been trying to set one of her father’s poems to music for many years, despite his feeling that poems and poems, songs are songs, and they are mutually exclusive. Lucinda was finally able to accomplish her goal, and the song is lovely – and it is a
    song, Lu!

    Here’s the full article.

    You’ll forgive me if I don’t click on the full review lwj, as big suze’s two mistakes here are enough to warn me off. David sings much more background always than Stuart or Butch, and we all know which [past] record “Copenhagen” appeared on. But thanks for the research.

    thanks, lafayette; just yesterday I was listening to the Schramms’ cover of “Side of the Road,” and it’s moving, with quite a finale guitar break. Still, wish I had been in Vermont to hear its most recent live manifestation with Stu and Lu.

    this just proves what I have suspected for weeks: TM John Callaci has quite the nose for merde.

    One thing is for certain – I learn something every now and then in the FF. For one, French words…

    So, the million dollar question is… Did Lu venture into the bathroom at the Stone Pony or take her tour manager’s advice? 😛
