Since that event, a group of local anti-nuclear activists has held a candlelight vigil to commemorate the accident, and to promote a non-nuclear America. This year is the 20th anniversary of the event, and on March 28th a concert is being held at the Forum in Harrisburg PA. The concert starts at 6:00 with a local and a regional opener, followed by Susan Werner and Dar Williams. Proceeds will go to benefit NO NUKES PA, to continue the effort to call to account those who created the problem, and to force them to clean up the mess that still exists. The concert is being held at The Forum in the Capital Center in Harrisburg PA, which is located on the 300 block of Walnut Street. Here's a chance to see a great concert, and to be counted among those seeking an energy policy that is more safe, and more sane. Tickets can be obtained at 717-774-1078.

The first time I heard "Late for the Dance" was either up here in MA back in the early part of October of 97 or down home in MD a couple weeks after that. She introduced it as a song whose parts mostly came to her in a dream, which she said is pretty rare for her; when she woke up, she just had to write it down. I remember her playing it at the show at Andy's in Chestertown, MD because that was the first susan show i took my mum to and she loved it and susan also mentioned at that show that she hoped to put out an album of standards and songs in that style, and of course, i drooled at the thought. :) i swear that i'll get more info on susan doing her workshop here at berklee soon...it'd be wunnerful for lots of you people to show up. paul kim HELP! owner-believers@smoe.org Send mail to believers@smoe.org Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 22 Mar 1999 22:00:25 -0500 From: Mary Ellen Nagle Subject: re : Late for the Dance paul wrote: >The first time I heard "Late for the Dance" was either up here in MA back >in the early part of October of 97 or down home in MD a couple weeks after >that. Yes - I remember hearing it back then, too...it was at a concert out in Amherst, I believe, which I remember well because Susan brought along these wonderful pastrie-type treats for the audience that were baked by none other than her neighbor who inspired the song "Isabelle" (another song I've longed to hear again, but she doesn't seem to have been playing it lately...) There was a line in "Late For The Dance" back then which had the words "Dixie cup" in it...I remember thinking how only Susan could sing a line about paper Dixie cups and have it not sound silly...she has an eye for detail that really paints a picture in her lyrics...don't know if that line still exists in the song's current incarnation... - - Mary Ellen HELP! owner-believers@smoe.org Send mail to believers@smoe.org Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com ------------------------------ End of believers-digest V3 #72 ****************************** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------- This has been a posting from the Susan Werner believers-digest To unsubscribe send mail to Majordomo@smoe.org with "unsubscribe believers-digest" in the body of the message
