Here is what I can tell you right now. There are no other shows around the Chicago date -it is a one off festival show that also features the singer of a very prominent Chicago based band sharing the headline. This definitely will not connect to the Portland and Seattle shows. Gotta give the boss a little time off.
We are working on setting up the shows for probably Oct/Nov after the release of the album in later Sept.
We will also be doing a show on 9/26 on the Santa Monica Pierat the ocean here in LA. THe fall tour will probably kick off a week or so after that.
Needless to say there are lots of things happening.
thanks for the update, boss-spouse. Jon Langford or Jeff Tweedy come to mind, but it may be even bigger potatoes in the Windy City. At any rate, the short-term is our focus now. Can you say Lone Star?
Thanks for the update, TO! We miss you not checking in as much. You’re a busy man, I know, and that’s a good thing for the fans.
Things are coming together great so I’m hoping to be able to be in here a little more when we are on the road.

XRT is broadcasting Jeff Tweedy’s Taste of Chicago set on Saturday. Not sure if Lucinda will be broadcast too. Hope so.

So is anyone going to the Chicago show? ❓
Surely someone is, tony, but I opted not to. I believe “vmorris” was considering it but leaning against. Let’s hope we get a report to tide us over to Fayetteville. And see YOU in Santa Monica, as they say. . .
Yes, I was planning a trip to Lu’s show at the Taste of Chicago to coincide with a work trip (love it when that happens!), but I decided to head to Nashville for a show at the Bluebird Cafe this Thurs instead (also a work trip!) and had to scrap the Chicago trip. And I am taking my 11-year-old son to the American Idol live show this Sun night in Durham (god help me) and can’t swing Sat night in Chicago. I’m sure I will need a Lu show to detox from the American Idol experience, but Skynyrd next week in Raleigh will have to suffice. I will wear my KBB tee shirt to the Skynyrd show. This is too long of a response, but the moral is that there are so many shows, too little time 🙂 Viv
I would have considered it, especially since my brother lives in the Windy City, however, slap my hand, I’m headed south to Somerset, KY to see Stoll Vaughan at the Master Musician’s Festival. I haven’t seen him for a year and half.
So, I know Paul has made a trip or two to (one) of the cities by the lake…
omg… I hope the FF is updated in case Lu and Doug play in Chicago, or will he join her for the Taste of Chicago show? I think Stuart is back touring with the Wallflowers now… but not to worry, he said he’ll be back with Lu for the fall shows (unless I hallucinated that comment).

Well, well, well…it looks like Mr. Pettibone is in Chicago…with Lu!
I don’t know how you found this out Lafayette but regretfully all for naught.
“Quote”The Taste of Chicago will not open today due to weather conditions. The safety of all visitors and residents attending Taste of Chicago are our top priority. All concert and Chef du Jour tickets that were purchased online will be refunded automatically. The Taste of Chicago will be open tomorrow, Sunday, July 13.
No info yet on rescheduling Lu and Jeff.
I was looking forward to the WXRT live broadcast while watching the FIFA world cup final games.

THAT’S what a true musician is all about . Nice job responding to Reggie’s FB post…
Lucinda Williams

(Lucinda mgmt) Just called Buddy Guy’s club – the girl I talked to didn’t want to put much effort in getting ahold of mgmt and I also got the feeling she might not have known who Lucinda was. Kind of reminded me of the story about Charlie Watts not being able to get into the Cabooze in Mpls where the Stones were doing a secret show. Oh well.Reply From FB:
“Reggies: We love Lucinda! call us!
