    Good story, Tony.
    First time I saw Lu, I believe, was Aug 8, 1996 at one of the Summer Nights at the Pier shows on the Seattle waterfront. Kind of a rough patch for me, newly single and going to many shows, including every one I could catch at this unfortunately long gone, spectacular venue. I say I believe this was my first Lu show, but it’s possible I saw her before as she played the Pier several times during that era and my memory is a little.. fuzzy :). But this show left an impression that stuck.

    Can’t travel to as many shows as I’d like, but really looking forward to her Northwest gigs coming up in June.
    Summertime, Lucinda outdoor shows in the Northwest, .. still nothing better πŸ˜‰

    Fantastic couple of shows in Austin!
    Made the last couple shows (hit Willie Nelson’s Beto rally in Lu of saturday’s show) and after catching four Plant/Lu shows, can honestly say they got better and better each time culminating in a fantastic tour finale on Monday.

    10-2 Setlist

    Steal Your Love (Great Opener!!)
    Protection
    West Memphis
    Lake Charles
    Changed the Locks
    Atonement
    Foolishness
    Get Right With God
    Honey Bee

    A technical(?) snafu before the last song that unfortunately lasted several minutes, leaving Lu visibly pissed.
    Not sure of the issue, perhaps getting her time cut, but unfortunate ending to a great run, although as is usually the case, it fired her up to finish out the set even stronger. Great show(s)!

    Great review..

    β€œIt’s an honor to open up for Robert Plant – their show is un-fucking-real,” she gushed. β€œTake a deep breath … you’ll probably get a secondhand high.”

    Great show in Troutdale!
    So good to see Lu and band again (roger as well ; )

    Lot of Lu love in Portland, which I believe was the difference in this show being sold out for quite some time vs the Seattle show
    where tickets were available up to just before showtime..

    Look like a … trip!
    May try for SF only… shame no NW dates, but with two Plant/Lu shows, can’t complain too much. Well, I can, but… ; )

    Looking forward to seeing if an audio version (in Lu’s voice) will be part of the release.. For the record, I’d gladly buy both πŸ˜‰

    β€œI have a lot to say and a big story to tell,” Ms. Williams said in a news release. β€œI want everyone to know what’s behind the songs and to know more about me than what people previously thought they knew. It’s time to tell my truth.”

    Can’t wait!

    Had the pleasure of seeing Rosanne Cash tonight here in Bellingham, and then checked her twitter feed after the show, and saw this nice greeting for Lu..
