I believe a sixth appearance was just announced as well…
“The amazing Lucinda Williams has been added to the Jimi Hendrix Celebration lineup at Butler on 3/13! http://ow.ly/ulzSN “
My money is on another classic version of Angel..
10:45 local time and still no stoger report..
I have contacted local authorities and they are currently assembling a rescue team.
They have been asked to bring anything they can get their hands on to help dig.Will update as info becomes available.
Tony.. glad to see your posts as I was real concerned of how you might feel the next day after the horrific tumble…
The concert was a blast!
So good to get to meet all the FF members as well.
Except for the part where Tony missed that (unmarked , in a dimly lit, painted black floor) step and hit the deck , it was really a blast going to the Velvet Margarita. Such a cool place, and exactly the type of place I would think of as a Lucinda fav.Absolutely loved the two concerts I was fortunate enough to attend and was struck by how really good Lu’s voice was sounding, not that it doesn’t always, but if possible it seems to be even better. Part of that could be how long it was for me in between shows and part could be the acoustics of the small venues (McCabes was extraordinary).
The two shows combined set lists made for a double header for me that I honestly don’t think could have been better. Several new songs that I’ve never heard, a bunch of(all) favorites, couple rarities and a great version of Jimi’s “Angel”.
Thanks to all for the hospitalities and for helping me navigate (stoger) getting in and navigating the last couple shows of the world tour. Great, great time.
*Speaking of navigating, I took your advise Tony, and took the 101 back to San Francisco to fly out, I decided to check out Big Sur, it was really cool for the first couple hours, but then fog moved in, followed by nightfall, followed by about seven hours of me knowing this will my only trip up that stretch of road again. Ever. 😮
Excellent reporting by stoger indeed.
Thanks for posting the link to “something wicked” …can’t wait to (hopefully) hear it live (1 week) and counting..Like the new Lu addition to Butch’s drum..

Note this show does not appear yet on the Hotel Cafe calendar page.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Been quite a draught for me (Beacon Theatre)… over a year.
Longest spell since I “discovered” her in the late nineties… 😀Whew… thanks again!

Question for TomO, will there be a presale of tickets for the 3/3 Hotel Cafe show? Or will it just be a big line at the door? thanks.
I thought this show already went on sale and sold out… I have to travel down to the LA area, but can’t be there until Sat the 1st, and I thought I had zero chance of catching ANY shows.. This is great news… if I still have a shot at one show!!
If it’s a “line at the door” I will get there plenty early, and would gladly get an extra (or two) .. If they go on sale earlier and someone from the friendly forum could do the same, it would be much appreciated! Hope to see you there! MikeLucinda on the same bill as The Rolling Stones.
And yet, somehow I find myself in Seattle.

thank you for this, lwj. His latest blog said the pause was for a “moment” but the full friday account elaborates. I don’t find it necessarily “fishy,” but let’s just be glad it was temporary and physiological, apparently, as opposed to a long-term emotional thing. Not that any such event is to be brushed off and ignored. Stay well, Lucinda.
Well said stoger, and couldn’t agree more.

And they were a great pair of shows there as well, the sound was amazing.
NY&CH are probably the only artists I would forego a Lucinda show for and I have managed to get good tickets for some of her other UK shows so things ain’t so bad! 🙂
Ahem.. with a handle like yours, I gotta believe the Stones would make the list… they’d be the only group on mine..

Yes, “I Need Protection” (or “Protection,” as Lu introduced it a time or two) has been played maybe 3-4 times in my hearing, though that Dakota version is a nice reprise. And the title city song for night six, my my.
Lafayette, can I link to one place with all the Dakota set lists?
Believe she played it here I met you in Redding and then again in Vancouver where we were both in attendance as I recall..
Could be wrong though.
Great song.Also on the hunt…
Have an app on my ipad that searches multiple cities…
Any description of the leather coat??..And Happy Belated Birthday , Lu!
