    We got to get to Georgetown more often, lafayette. Quite a ways crosstown from the old 9:30 club, but good stuff, good find.

    A fine show tonight at McCabes. I will yield to the “fresh” interpretations of tonyg and paulfromlosangeles, as both know Amy’s and Shannon’s music less than I do. It was a pleasure being flanked in the first row by these estimable gentlemen. About one third of the setlist was different from the day before, a Lu stratagem. Take it away, boys.

    Thanks as always, LWJ. Depp and Brinkley are a publishing team now??? Sure it’s not Huntley and Brinkley? Depp and [Demi] Moore? Not to be cryptic, but it looks like Memorial Day 2012 is bearing fruit for the Overby-Williams camp. TO, any update?

    Couldn’t spot your Litte Honey t-shirt in the crowd.

    p.s. Must be nice Perfessor to get time off to travel out West to hit these concerts.

    Fall break, my North America friend. Remember: I’m so short and petite that I often don’t stand out in crowds.

    I’ll have to ask Stoger what “astringent lyrics” means.

    The opposite of “saccharine lyrics,” big boy.

    That’s a blow, Lefty. I missed her in Nashville the other week, a mere 124 miles from my home–though I was far away that particular day. Trying for a North Carolina gig in October. You best subscribe to her email list. . . .

    Well, in the absence of any Anne McCue shows to attend, I went to see Pegi Young at Zoey’s Saturday night. Big crowd. Sold out , in fact, but it’s a tiny place. There was barely enough room on the stage for the band. She only played an hour. I can’t say it was a great performance, because it wasn’t, but her band was smokin’. Her guitarist, Kelvin Holly, tore it up all night. I think he was inspired when he saw his buddy Doug P. in the crowd. The rest of the band was also great; Rick “The Bass Player” Rosas, Spooner Oldham on keys, and Phil Jones on drums. The guy sitting next to me insisted that the band was Crazy Horse. I tried to explain that it wasn’t but I’m not sure I was successful. She mostly did her own songs but also did a version of I Don’t Want To Talk About It by the late Danny Whitten. She did not do Side of The Road, which she has also covered. As was the case at the Hotel Cafe last year, Pegi made a bee line for her huge tour bus parked right outside the front door as soon as the show was over. No chit chat. No CD signing. Luckily her band stayed around for about 45 minutes, draining drinks and happily talking to whoever felt like it (me). This was my concert pal Etienne’s last night on the town with me as he is moving back to Paris for some reason in a couple weeks. I have no other friends out here who like to go out and listen to music. East Nashville is sounding good right now.

    Quite a report. Shocking that a man would prefer Paris to southern CA: care to speculate on that “some reason?” Spooner Oldham is huge ’round these Southern parts, Muscle Shoals and beyond. Glad to hear you shared floor space with pettibone too. What with fall break upcoming, I may darken the Zoey’s door for Amy LaVere/Shannon McNally come mid-October. Grumpymama is in I think: how about it tony? Or will you be in east Nash by then?

    I have the DVD too. Would you please tell your friend Anne we are suffering from Anne deprivation out here in So Cal?

    will do, Tony. As an alternative, you might consider moving to east Nashville.
