Oh my. đŻ Check out Kathleen’s new video for “Chameleon/Comedian”. I’ll include the warning here that was posted on her Facebook page:
WARNING: Contains graphic imagery. Not for the faint of heart.
Tom
Thanks for the warning.
The 1st 20 seconds, the last 5 seconds, the voice, the song and the street scenes in Toronto are great.The rest very disappointing -just not my cup of tea. It’s not worth a 2nd look.

tnt, most kind of you to offer to send me your 2nd copy of The Highway but just keep your autographed copy on your shelf in mint condition and play the copy over and over.
Holly’s lyrics are certainly poignant as you said.
Yes, technology is great and advancing almost daily.lwj
tnt- My .02 on your superb reporting.
It’s got everything including a venue report, Holly’s fashion report,Perfessor’s style, teary eyes, Holly’s stage comments, etc.,etc.-Easily the FF post of the year.
Your iPhone certainly works for you.
Your posting of the lyrics of “Waiting on June” prompted me to do a little search.
An excerpt from a recent interview with Holly.Her personal favorite song on the album is âWaiting on Juneâ because it is the story from her grandfather to her grandmother. âI put myself in his shoes and tried to describe his life loving her, committing to her, and waiting on her from eight years old to marry him, to waiting on her in Heaven. I am the most proud of this song, more than any other song I’ve ever written. It is the hardest for me to get through, but the definite audience favorite,â she said.
The full interview follows.http://suite101.com/a/interview-holly-williams-highway
I phoned my local record store and placed an order for “The Highway” and because it’s classified as an import it will take approx. three weeks to arrive.
I thought so much of the lyrics of “Waiting on June” that I cheated and found a free download-The song is almost 7 minutes with very little repetition.
So FF have a listen to Holly and Gwyneth Paltrow.http://songs.to/#!pl=7bc10510e64e4a14b944252f47de1adadfcc3b21

I did a little research Lafayette on the photo you just posted.
Bob and Dave Van Ronk at the Friends of Chile concert on May 9, 1974 at Madison Square Gardens.
http://musictravellerstwo.blogspot.ca/2009/09/friends-of-chile-benefit-1974-05-09-new.htmlAnd let’s turn the clock back even further to Sep. 6, 1961 at the Gaslight Cafe in NYC with Bob and Dave Van Ronk performing Woody Guthrie’s “Car Car” This apparently was one of Bob’s earliest tapes.

Gimme a break guys. Had to work today and shovel snow after our big storm.
Anyway the curly haired guy on the album cover I believe is Champ Hood.(an Uncle Walt band member)
Check out this video.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWz5hru32jo
Furthermore here is a comprehensive listing of all the Kerrville Folk Festivals from 1970 to 2012.
Scroll down to 1980 and the winner ironically was Lizabeth Williams from Georgetown, TX.AND, scroll further down to 1974 to see our Lu.

Seems appropriate to post this video from Night 5 at the Dakota.
Song is of course “Minneapolis” with Lu accompanied by fiddle and pedal steel.A fine ending to the first tour of 2013.

Question:
Wake Up Call is listed in set list. Is this correct title? Cover? The only info I can find is a Maroon 5 song? đł
Maybe it’s a new song or is it writer’s error as these exact words were quoted in the review you posted as per below.
while “Reason to Cry” saw Williams hitting her stride, with help on the fiddle from opening supporter Lillie Mae Rische and Pettibone striking chords like they were a wake-up call.
And Lafayette, I just couldn’t resist posting this image from your first report last night on your social media skills obtaining bits and pieces of the show from Twitter. :lol:[attachment=0:zv9ckepo]Lafayette- The Tweety Bird.jpg[/attachment:zv9ckepo]

A lengthy and great article from the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
Forever Bob.

All I could find from the Stoughton Opera House was a CWOAGR video.

From the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
1. The Set List.
If youâre going to see Lucinda Williams at the Dakota, arrive on time to catch the Kenneth Brian Band.
Well, itâs a stripped down version of these Alabama Southern rockers. But Brian, who has a ZZ Top starter kit beard and a suitable Billy Gibbons flair with the electric guitar, is a talented dude in a Jamey Johnson kind of alt-country way. Moreover, Brian and members of his band, including fiddler Lillie Mae Rische, sit in with Lucinda at various points, adding much needed depth and dynamics.
As for Lucinda, her Friday set was a bit disappointing, as my review indicated. She chatted more about the business of music instead of the creating of it. And her set list left something to be desired. (Personally, I always long for âRighteously.â)
Here is what she and Doug Pettibone played on Friday:
Lake Charles/ Side of the Road/ People Talkinâ/ The Nightâs Too Long/ Jackson/ Crescent City/ Bus to Baton Rouge/ When I Look at the World (new song)/ Make the World Go Away (Hank Cochran)/ Jailhouse Tears/ Concrete & Barbed Wire/ Pineola/ Something Wicked This Way Comes (new)/ Hard Time Killing Floor Blues (Skip James)/ Real Live Bleeding Fingers & Broken Guitar Strings/ Change the Locks (Tom Petty)/ Joy ENCORE Nothin in Ramblin (Memphis Minnie)/ Jambalaya (Hank Williams)/ Get Right with God (with four members of Kenneth Brian Band. The Review.
