Hi'
'Early morning Rain' and '***** Willows, Cattails' always make me mellow, he is a great singer, heck I probably like a lot more but those two spring immediately to mind, as for 'If you could read my mind' that's a core meltdown track!
'Hat Lady' *tee hee* I suppose I 'asked' for that!
He played that too!

Love the Hat! Why are all my kindred spirits always in the UK? I feel stuck in Middle Earth...but obviously making the best of it.
We got BB King with Al Green and Buddy Guy in a few weeks!
Thanks for counting me as one of your kindred spirits

'Stuck in Middle Earth', not a bad place to be
btw what do you think of the Gordon Lightfoots' cover of Roberta Flacks', 'The First Time....', personally, he captures the song in a way I have NEVER heard before, truly moving and beautiful..........(

)
WOW, DL'd that one...very nice one I had not heard! Will have to share that one soon...lol. oops, you may have gotten me laid.

I love Roberta Flack....a fellow Tarheel(Black Mountain, NC) she's in Japan right now...hope she comes close when she get's back to the mainland. If you haven't noticed yet I am a concert junkie.

No, I hadn't noticed at all that you are a 'Concert Junkie'

, nothing like hearing music live to gage whether bands need the studio or not, Muse imo, really do produce the same sound live as they do on CD.....btw Gordon and Roberta have that effect on people don't they
Nah, I am more about experiencing the artist's live performance to connect with them and their music. To feel what they convey from their lives and the reasons and meanings behind the songs. It's not important that they try to sound like the studio recordings (to me).
Sometimes you can be half way through a Dylan song before you can tell what song it is...shucks, I once finally heard Dylan do Tangled Up In Blue live and he left out my favorite verse from it...lol.
"She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said
"You look like the silent type."
Then she opened up a book of poems
And handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet
From the thirteenth century.
And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul from me to you,
Tangled up in blue."
That's OK Mr. Zimmerman,...Good to see you again...lol.
Yeah, I've see maybe 300 shows with a thousand acts overall. It' my thing...
That's a lot of shows! But the missing verse didn't spoilt your enjoyment of the concert, did he have more songs in his set where he remembered all the verses?
I have seen my share of bands over the years, for me I have to hear them live if I have heard them on the radio/CD and liked them, I want to hear if the studio made them sound good or they really are that good. It just irks me when some bands get used to the studio and forget the live show.
