    I just went back and checked the tickets – they said ‘Buick 6’ 👿 . Bewick is a local place to here so I am really confused. If Lucinda et Co. come back to the north east I would love to see them again, I thought it was brill and a total surprise and luck to be given the tickets 😛 . I know my friends were absolutely gutted to miss her and £50 isn’t exactly nothing is it?

    Anyway, I wanna be someone’s Honey Bee – I love that song!

    😯 😆 😆 😆 May I PMSL!!!! I’m not an old timer or ‘LW’ follower or anything else, so have a right to have a good laugh!!! But I’m not an outsider to excellent music – try shoving Faithless in yer ole pipes and try smoking it 😆 😆 😆 . LW and Buick 6 (I corrected it 💡 ) were excellent – perfect! As she said, it’s music and as newcomer and not one to be easily swayed – except in a high wind – it was excellent. The silences in between weren’t!

    And just as an odd one, South Tyneside (that’s The Sage location) is in the UK’s Swine Flu Top Ten so probably why so many new people were there :mrgreen: .

    But dare I suggest the lack of attention to the music on a couple of sets may be attributed to was, when I and possibly a few others, really, really, really thought L’s boob was about to pop out :shock:. I was with a friend I didn’t know very well, but thank goodness we had laugh about it afterwards, even if he did think they were false 🙄 .

    i find it impossible to believe that the vast majority of those european venues are seated. sitting must be very unconfortable at least in the last 7 or 8 songs of every setlist from this europe tour.

    There are a couple of arenas just a stone’s throw away from the Sage that would’ve been far better. Totally agree that it was a long set and I was uncomfortable and fed up of just politely sitting there, but wasn’t going to stand as people behind me still sitting may not have wanted to see me swaying around in front of them and blocking the view 😮 !

    I was given tickets to see Lucinda by a friend who was had the flu. I own up and say that I had never actually heard of Lucinda Williams before 😳 😳 😳 so had no idea what to expect. Once I had heard a few songs I realised I did know her music and I thought the performance from Lucinda and Buick 6 were absolutely brilliant – especially the drum solos. By the end I really wanted to dance – especially as I was sat right behind about the only person who was! But I found that the gaps in between each song were too long and so the whole ‘build-up’ thing fell flat as soon as each song ended, which was a real shame. Also, I had to laugh as no drinks were allowed in the venue – which is rather grand and prestigious and more geared for more sedate sets I think – so while Lucinda and the Bewicks were happily having their brandies topped up all the way through the set, we could only look on dry-mouthed and stoney faced as they obviously went for it and enjoyed themselves!
