My friend’s photo of Willie, JM, & Neil from Farm Aid in KC was published in the Rolling Stone magazine!
Interesting tweet discovered while doing my every now and then Lu twitter search.
An indirect gratuitous thank you to Lefty—from Mr. Jeffreys. 😉
Dated Sept 4

Thanks to all for the good words on this Lucinda Williams forum http://bit.ly/pEUTkvGreat report, lwj! So glad you were able to attend. My money is down on Amos Lee & Pieta Brown making it into your top 10 list. 🙂

Count me in for Charleston and Savannah (if it happens) – both lovely, genteel Southern towns. 🙂
Indeed they are. I once heard them compared as such: “Charleston & Savannah are like two Southern Belle sisters who were both raised to be prim & proper, but Savannah is the sister who drinks & smokes…” 😉

I know Savannah oh so well. Visited in 2005 for a Mellencamp tour kickoff. The Warehouse makes a lovely hurricane. I recommend no more than 2. Three proved way too much for moi.

I would love to visit again and take in more of the city.

Looking forward to it, Mr. Tracy! So glad you and Sarah are attending and will be meeting some of “The Crazy Ones” aka Mellenheads.

Have fun, lwj! Beautiful scenery and here’s hoping you don’t get tossed from the show by using your “point and shoot.” 😮 🙂

Good point Lafayette. I will add that he was a plumber and he was using a jackhammer. 🙄

Great indepth report, Tony! It’s always happening in LA or NYC.

and some guy started jackhammering in the rest room just as I started eating and it never stopped.
Above mention could be misconstrued. 😆
Fascinating piece about recording of “Mesabi” along with the back story behind each song.

Saw Garland perform last Sunday night at the Oneonta Theatre. In the aftermath of Hurricane Irene, there could not have been more than 20 in attendance. Sad. GJ seemed unfazed; he and long-time associate Al Freedman put on a terrific show, including Bob’s “She Belongs to Me” and “Corrina, Corrina.” Garland shook everybody’s hand at least once and gladly signed my copy of “Grinder’s Switch.” Thought I heard him say to someone between sets that he was going to be on Letterman Sept. 7. If you ever have a chance to see this man perform, you won’t be disappointed! Sixty-eight years old with a voice that sounds ageless.
Note to the burgeoning Amos Lee fan club here: I’d venture to say that Garland is Amos’s unofficial godfather. 8)
Amos Lee…did someone say Amos Lee? I will give your recommendation a look’sie, Mr. Lefty.
