I had a great time at the show last night: I agree with everyone who enjoyed the sound at the venue. Can I put in my vote for the version of “Essence”? I thought it was the best performance of that song I have ever heard. I’ve been following recent set lists, and I thought we heard the best selection of those recent ones I’ve seen. LW did a great job of showcasing the new record, but I really appreciated hearing material from WWT. That record never gets tired. There is no reason for her to “sing” the lyrics to “Righteously,” though. (She made a comment about smarty-pants reviews of her “rap.”) “Standard” delivery of those words are just fine with me!

One last note about the Jack Singer… It’s difficult for people to move around, and I have always thought that the proximity of the concession encourages people to go out for a quick drink or two in intermissions. After “Cinnamon Girl,” I was ready to roll, and then everyone walked over us (twice!) to grab a beer before Lucinda proper. So, to groovingroomer’s husband, I can only say that I was glad to get a chance to get settled back in with some atmospheric stuff before LW rocked out.

Doesn’t she look like she should always hold a guitar? It’s like she was born with one!
