    Here we go gig #18 of 32.

    Betcha the tour bus pulled an all nighter to drive to Zurich from Brussels and our man stoger probably took the ICE high speed rail via Frankfurt to arrive in Zurich.

    An intro to the venue via video-looks like a pretty hot spot.

    Thalys/TGV via Paris, actually lwj: but you are the thread-startin’ MAN!

    1 Passionate K (solo)
    2 Cant Let Go
    3 Car Wheels
    4 People Talkin
    5 Lake Charles
    6 Something About What Happens …
    7 When I Look at the World
    8 Copenhagen (a fan corrects her pronunciation and gives the long a sound; Lu good naturedly parries that by saying the rhyme scheme demands the ah sound)
    9 Over Time
    10 I Lost It
    11 Drunken Angel
    12 Something Wicked (a “preacher-humpin” song:also, Lu confirms that Joe Henry will produce newbie)
    13 Changed the Locks
    14 Hard Time Killing… (Lu tries to drop some economic theory on us, but since we dont know the difference between “recession” abd “depression” any more than she, she says “lets just play the song”)
    15 Essence
    16 Joy
    17 Honeybee

    18 Trying to get to Heaven (with late inserted sheets into the “Linus blanket” of a songbook)
    19 Riverman
    20 Blessed (Lu calls a girl on stage whose 12th birthday it is, then reminisces about learning the guitar at age 12, and 1965 in general with Dylans Hwy. 61 Revisited)
    21 Get Right with God(Lu tells story about an Italian fan in parking lot who asked why not play there. She says it was a “business decision” and promises to play there someday)

    Someone from the crowd tells Lu that she pronounced the word wrong? Really? That person should have been beheaded on the spot. Plus, I thought she did pronounce it correctly, yes? 😥

    Lu conceded that the guy in the audience was right, just that the rhyme scheme was better with her own pronunciation and would be retained. She admitted to not fact checking it at time: What a woman.

    Any other attendees posting?

    I think the guy was actually drunk, I distinctly heard him say something along the lines of ‘F**K Copenhagen this is Zurich’. He was as baffled as I was that she acknowledged him and made a comment on the pronunciation of the word. For the record, the pronunciation is with the long aaaaa sound as on the song. The only people who mispronounce it are the Brits who say it as in Copen hay gen.

    Otherwise, a perfect evening with Lucinda. She was on fine form, in fine voice and seemed to be thoroughly enjoying herself.

    This is pretty hilarious: intoxicated shout out becomes wise orthographic statement, rewarded by the affirmation of a 3 time Grammy winner. Maybe the next request for Free Bird-shout out will be rewarded with a pat on the back for the drunkards Skynrd knowledge LOL

    Not on Facebook, yet a father to a twelve-year-old? I like that. As Mr. Nash says, teach them well.
