ParticipantI found a tweet mentioning Lucinda paid her respects tonight (Wednesday) to Merle Haggard by playing “If We Make It Through December.”

ParticipantAnother review with mentions of songs not mentioned in the first posted review. One could come close to putting the set list together from the two.

Faith & Grace Postscript:
At 20 minutes long we debated long and hard what to do with this āpieceā. Should it be on the album; should it be presented on itās own? For the longest time I was determined to put the full length version on the album but to do so meant we would have had to add a third record to the vinyl package and we just didnāt want to do that again. We already had 88 minutes of music and we didnāt want to edit that down to a long single CD – so we made the decision that the best way to present it was two separate 40+ minute CDs, but we didnāt think of it as a double CD and we chose not to market it as that. But, another triple vinyl just didnāt seem realistic so we had no real choice but to edit Faith & Grace down a little. We ended up taking out about a 6 minute section to cut it down enough so we could just fit the entire album on two vinyls. Other than taking out that section, what you hear is what happened. There were no overdubs later etc. We didnāt want to touch a thing. We will release the full version, most likely digitally, because it really needs to be heard in itās entirety. We will also be putting out a blue vinyl 12ā remix single for Record Store Day in April. That is going to blow some mindsHere is the info on Lu’s Record Store Day Release, as TO indicated in this blog.

ParticipantOH, there’s my 2 Kool in the set list (!!) and have to agree with Steal Your Love, Sweet Side, etc etc. Oh, how I wish I could hop on the Lu train and follow her for a month, nonstop.
Here’s hoping 2 Kool makes it into the Louisville set list. 8)
Thanks for the reports, all!
Lafayette
ParticipantThanks for posting the set list, stoger!
Thankfully, your cross country flight was without incident and you made it to the windy city, snow showers and all.
You’ve covered the set list with bracket commentary, where necessary. I can’t recall anything to add to your summation. I’ll take over duties in Louisville. Geez, you’d think we would have given you a break since you were celebrating your birthday!
The room was amazing. My brother was sitting along the side of the stage on David’s side and commented the sound was great.
I just checked my setlist.fm page. The last time I saw Lu (not counting the show in Nashville with Roseanne and EmmyLou) was last February in L.A. at The Regent! šÆ FAR TOO LONG. I needed last night. It was wonderful. Thanks all!
Lafayette
ParticipantOh, how I would love to squeeze this in between Louisville and Nashville. It would be a ‘ville’ trifecta.
Lafayette
ParticipantAhhh, there’s my 2 Kool on the set list. 8)
I follow Angela Perley, a local band from Columbus, OH, near Nelsonville, and she counts Lucinda as one of her mentors / heroes. She has never seen Lu live until last night. She posted this on her FB page:
‘First time seeing Lucinda Williams live and it being in Nelsonville at Stuart’s Opera House= words can’t express… No one writes a song or sings a song like Lu!’
Angela has played the Nelsonville Music Festival at Stuart’s in the past and is scheduled for this year’s event as well.
I’m so happy she finally managed to see Lu.

ParticipantI don’t think this has been posted.
Recap with a multitude of pictures. Good to see Buick 6 is still autographing drum heads with siggies and words of wisdom.

Really fantastic article. You can always count on the FF to bring the good stuff! The writer mentions that Lucinda is calling from “her home in Nashville”… is this new, or is the writer perhaps assuming that all musicians of Lucinda caliber reside in Nashville 8) ? Also, he refers to “Vince (!!) McCallum” as Lu’s “road guitarist” — do not disrespect Stuart, my friend! I dig this article so much.
Caught that too, Vivian.
Heard a rumor a while back that trading in the LA digs for Nashville was a potential option.
Gotta think it was the author’s error though. Hope so, for purely selfish reasons of course, as traveling to the LA area is much easier for me. Although I’m still trying to see if I can put together a New Orleans/ Mississippi/Tennessee trip for that amazing leg of this tour 8) Great article and I agree frame worthy cover.I have an extra ticket in Section MF-1, Row G, Seat 1 for the Ryman. š The FF will be well represented at the Mother Church. Just sayin.’

ParticipantGreat report and you could tag this night as a Boston Proper experience. Good to see Boston II atoned for Boston I.
Safe travels, Perfesser!
Lafayette
ParticipantI’m aware of 2/3. I tend to think classes are still in session but close to finals week, eliminating that third possibility
With that said, could it be I may find you belly up at a bar, sipping mint juleps??
