My. God. hee hee. As always, susan did not disappoint tonight in Sykesville, MD. She played a 50 minute and a 40 minute set with an encore to die for. Yes, i finally got to see her play and sing La Habanera from Bizet's Carmen again...thank you thank you thank you to the group who requested the song.... She played a LOT of new stuff...the only older stuff she did was LOTGSG, Tappan Zee, St. Mary's of Regret, Much at All, and she ended with the Baby Boomer Song (is she really pulling this song out of the mothballs because this is the second time in a row that i've seen her do it)... She had scattered comments about the Nashville sessions...album is supposed to come out August 15th, i believe, and will be called "Long Time Between Trains" or whatever the name of that song is....hmmm....which reminds me that when i saw her at Falcon Ridge with Sherlyn and Woj and Meth and Mike, she mentioned that that was the probable title of the cd...of course, this was two summers ago... She said that she's done the rough cuts of the songs and they are more stripped down "for those who fear the overproduction of the last album"... i took my sister to the show...it's the first time since January of 1996 that she's seen Susan...of course she enjoyed it immensely :) We arrived about 3 minutes before the performance (susan had no opener) and there were only scattered single seats (the place, Baldwin's Station and Pub, is a restaurant/pub and the room where Susan performed was a dining room...people were having dinner and waiters were floating through...she was alotted an area in a corner for her performance space with spotlights on her...it was like dinner theater) I let my sister have the very front row seat at the front most table right in front of susan while i sat further back...lots of background noise, typical of a restaurant, which kind of detracted from the concert...and a train blew by during "Your Old Mistake"... sidenote : sykesville seemed so out of place to me and my sister....it reminded us of the small towns of Massachusetts, especially in the Berkshires...threw us both aback a bit since we both went to college up there... As always, we were the only asians in attendence :) just kidding...well, about the "as always" comment... she performed the new arrangement of LOTGSG...a kind of sadder version of the Live at Tin Angel cut...and she played an appreciable number of newer songs that i hadn't heard before...She started with a song that might be called "This Might Be the Last Go Round"....then did "Bodhisattva and the Beamer".... no Petaluma Afternoons....she did do "Standing in my Own Way", "Bonsai", a Don MacLean song about Van Gogh which she has recorded, but she isn't sure if it'll make it on the album..."Movie of My Life"... i'll comment about the newer songs later....suffice it to say, i'm excited as all get out for the new album....and i can't wait to see her again...didn't get to talk to her after the show...my sister and i had to jet...she has classes to teach tomorrow...

Wow, I'm glad that's still what the album's going to be called. I thought Susan surely must have come up with a new title, since it has been a couple of years. Still, I like "Long Time Between Trains" or "Time Between Trains" lots as an album title. Yay. > As always, we were the only asians in attendence :) just kidding...well, > about the "as always" comment... What do you mean, "as always"? I sat next to you at Falcon Ridge, didn't I? :) > no Petaluma Afternoons....she did do "Standing in my Own Way", "Bonsai", a Don > MacLean song about Van Gogh which she has recorded, but she isn't sure if "Starry Starry Night"? Oh, wow. That's a fantastic song. Enough rambling - I should get back to work...
