Hey,

I just got my Lucinda tickets for Tucson Az. I was wondering anyone knows if the the Buick 6 plays a opening set before the Lucinda set. Also does she ever meet the fans after the show?

Hello – welcome to the forum!

To answer your first question – Yes. Buick 6 plays an opening set (usually 45 minutes long or so) before they return to the stage w/ Lu after a break.

And your second – Sometimes. It all depends on several factors, as you can probably imagine – how tired she is, whether the buses have to leave quickly after the show to get to the next town, even sometimes whether she has personal friends and / or family visiting with her after the show. I can speak from personal experience, however, that Lu (& her manager Tom Overby) are very accommodating and gracious to the fans. If circumstances permit, Lu will often greet fans & sign autographs.

Tom

Any idea when tickets go on sale for Santa Fe show. Am moving to New Mexico from Massachusetts and will be on the road the week of April 19.

High Road Touring has added the following date:

Thursday, June 18 ’09 (8:00PM), Oklahoma City, OK, Diamond Ballroom

Thanks for the info. can’t wait to see her. we have wanted to for years but it has never worked out. It seems like every time we have moved. she has come to the area soon after. Thankfully we are going to be close to Tuscon that weekend. I wish we could go to the phoenix show but one will have to do for now.

We are on the floor at the Blue Note. Just ordered tickets.

We will be driving Atlanta to Louisville for the show on the 14th, then driving the next morning from Louisville to Columbia for this show. Then home to Atlanta, with “touristy” stops in St. Louis & perhaps Memphis. I thought we’d make a little vacation out of the trip…

Tom

Hellfire, Tom, I’d show you around Memphis–if I planned to be there at the time. “touristy” indeed. I too bought floor/GA for Columbia, so see you there. “Little vacation” indeed. I’ll be at the end of an extended one looks like, but fresh as a daisy in many ways, let’s hope. Can you tell if Brown Theatre has seats, is reserved? This one may bear keeping an eye on, to get optimum spots near stage.

Oh, and here’s a photo of the Brown Theatre at the Kentucky Center in Louisville:

Looks fancy. It will be quite a transition from this “palace” to the Blue Note in Columbia the next evening, won’t it? 😆
