What’s interesting about this record, among other things, is for someone who is happily married and the long dark days of misery are over, Lu spends much of the record ripping people new assholes, or saying how everything has turned to shit. It does make for good music. 😀
P.S. Note I got 2 more naughty words past the censor.
Here is a fun fact for all y’all: My favorite song to date is Foolishness. Runer-up, When I look At The World. So 2 facts really. 😀
I noticed the lack of a guitarist credit for Protection. Good guitar work indeed.
Having worked on liner notes in the past that I edited multiple times, I can tell ya it sucks to see that mistakes still get through.
The pier was a zoo but it was a pleasant night. I was going to stand back a bit but there was a space on the rail next to Grumpymama so I took up residence. Lucinda looked and sounded great. Cool large tv type screen in the back of the stage . All was well until halfway thru Ventura when there was a huge commotion behind me and I turned around to see the crowd was being parted by a man pushing a woman in a wheelchair. Keep in mind you could not have slipped a piece of paper between the throng of drunken revelers at the front, but here they came, destination front row right in front of Stuart, the precise exact spot I was occupying. Through the hysteria the woman, at least 90 years old, informs us Stuart is her son, and the resemblance was obvious so she was wheeled up to the rail, hoisted out of her chair, and propped up with her arms over the rail. The chair is folded up behind me, catching my pants leg in the foot rest part and almost de-pantsing me on the spot. Hilarity ensued. Eventually she had to sit down again in the chair, which was hastily unfolded, which nearly removed two of the toes on my right foot. That’s rock and roll for ya. Stuart’s parents were very nice and apparently they had not seen him play in person for over a decade.
The crowd enjoyed all the songs, old and new. The show ended at exactly one hour. Lucinda had an adventure leaving the stage at the rear when she tripped but was OK.
It was great to see all the band and crew, Webmasta and Mrs. W., forum members Grumpymama, Paul from Los Angeles, JStreet and Mrs. JStreet, and forum member Kathy and her husband Jim.

off at 8:22What’s funny, in a tragic way, is I applied for an American Express card solely for the purposes of buying tickets to this event, as AMEX is the sole payment method allowed for these presales. So naturally that was a complete waste of time and effort. 🙄
Thank you Stoger for allowing me to edit your post title. I will do my best tonight. Grumpymama and I will be in the VIP area, as befits our status. We will keep an eye out for Paul. 😛
I edited the title of this post. Please post your remarks about the show here. I plan to post the setlist “live and in real time” from the show. Because I can. 8)
It sold out in one-billionth of a second. Fuck. 👿
p.s. I guess the censor doesn’t know that word lol.
