Great pictures Tom.
Thanks for sharing them. I am mostly a part time lurker here, but catch Lu whenever she makes it this way. This was a most incredible show and I was glad I was there to witness and experience it. It will be one of my greatest memorable music moments ever. I was standing not too far to the left of you guys, just behind Caroline and Sandy, both of whom I had the pleasure of meeting, while we were waiting for the show to begin.Yep, a good show last night. A definite different vibe to it than the show 2 weeks before, which I thought was incredible, but it was good just the same. The opener Side of the Road with Doug was just wonderful, and things rolled along just great (and more quietly than the previous 1st Ave show), up to the aborted Those Three Days. Like zinovy said, she lost momentum, but she did pull it back together at the end of the set, and Lu seemed so into it in her encore, with those 3 great songs with local blues harp legend Tony Glover and the closer Long Way to the Top.
The set list I snared from the stage afterwards showed Those Three Days, followed by Out of Touch and Little Rock Star (both of which she bypassed) before Essence, and did not list Righteously. And the encore section of the set list also had Marching the Hate Machines and For What Its Worth/Masters of War listed besides the 4 she did play. Carrie Rodriguez was great opening, and I was kind of hoping she would’ve came out to play sometime during Lu’s set. It sure was nice getting the 2 Lucinda shows up here in the span of 2 weeks at First Avenue. Can’t get any better than that.
