    1 Blessed
    2 Metal Firecracker
    3 Right in Time
    4 Drunken Angel
    5 West Memphis [completing a Mathis harmonica duo]
    6 East Side of Town
    7 Compassion [followed by “I guess that’s a kind of Thanksgiving song”]
    8 When I Look at the World [“maybe a Thanksgiving song too”]
    9 Lake Charles [“I lived with that one (Clyde)”; the “bad liver” comment is reprised as well]
    10 Blue
    11 2 Kool 2 B 4 Gotten [not only a false start, but Lu leaves the stage for about 90 seconds after some coughs: the boys gamely play on, and upon her return Lu says “Thanks, guys” and belts a version out which I bet our Japanese collector would die for]
    12 Are You Down {Lu looks grateful for a tune with more instrumental than vocal to it at this point]
    13 Hot Blood [preceded by “Y’all might not be able to stay in your seats for this one”–which axiom is proven true by a spirited lafayette jumping to her feet and swaying throughout]
    14 Protection
    15 Foolishness
    16 Changed the locks
    17 Essence
    18 Righteously [with karaoke talk prior)
    19 Honeybee [lafayette bathroom break/vmorris vin refill pours all around]
    _________________________________________
    20 Magnolia {Lu notes that she used to play it a lot back in the day]
    21 Something About What Happens When We Talk RED INK ALERT, TG [with Leigh Ann Womack–Lu praises her new record and notes that “we voted for it” in the Grammy noms: also, Stuart gets an extra instrumental break]
    22 Joy
    23 Get Right With God

    HOw nice to see various and sundry: Anne McCue and Lisa; Kelly a k a Music Lover; the aforementioned Vivian and lafayette; ddinnj and spouse Dominic; Shilah “Mama” Morrow; Peggy from California; Lillie Mae and her lookalike sister Grace; others to whom I apologize for forgetting. Kenneth and LM brought “Last Call” out of the mothballs for a little mouth-to-mouth duetting, short set be damned. I think the Forum is wrong here on them opening tonight and tomorrow. I must say I rate the facility higher than that September debacle, including the parking options. Please add stuff, others. Nash rocks in this pre-holiday mode.

    Remarks from Tom:

    “First night of three in Nashville -highlights : East Side Of Town, When I Look At The World, Hot Blood and Something About What Happens with very special guest Lee Ann Womack. Something About was also a tour debut so the song count is now at an even 70.”

    Thank you Stoger for taking lead on the reporting and highlights of the evening. Excellent powers of observation. Lots of fun meeting Vivian and Lafayette, and yes those ladies do rock it. Hot Blood…how great was that? Something About What Happens….a cool surprise. Sounded super too.

    Dare I ask what “mouth-to-mouth duetting” is? 😳

    Could night’s 2 and 3 lead to a late night in Nashville ?
    Double openers of Steelism /KBB and Kristin Diable / KBB 2 and 3 respectively ?

    Lucinda, take two, on 2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten, with much audience applause after the first line. I absolutely LOVE this song. I’m so glad she dug deep and it wasn’t aborted.

    Great report, stoger, as always! It was great meeting DDinNJ and her husband, the couple at our table (from Iowa, I believe). I am also extremely thankful for dinner and drinks with good friends, an incredible set list (2 Kool, Hot Blood, Metal Firecracker, each and every new song) and performance by Lu and her dynamic band, dancing table side (with a smile from Lu when she saw us jump up), waves from the stage from the Kenneth Brian band, i.e. Frank, Travis, and Lillie Mae, my embedded seat front and center – again, due in part to great friends, the set list from the show, morning tylenol, and a safe trip home.

    Have fun all you crazy kids in Nashville, embedded for all three nights. I hope to see y’all in 2015!

    Sounds like a great road trip you had Lafayette.
    Loved your video capture of Junebugs vs Hurricanes. Do you still have that trusty Kodak.?
    You are so right about attending a gig with friends and I too would love to see you and other FF members again in 2015 perhaps at one or more of the following. LW, JM, AL, or AP.
    Were you able to acquire this at stoger’s discounted price ? 😆

    Excellent visual, Lafayette, to illustrate this: the phrase comes from Chuck Prophet circa 2002, when he and Stephanie Finch were doing this number on his song “After the Rain.”

    No never a “double” opener, lwj: the site here was wrong about KBB being booked Tues. and Wed.

    Thanks for filling me in…I should have known it was cryptic. 😀 😯
