Like as soon as the 14th in Lexington MA? Lori, the answer is yes - the DVDs were for sale last night at the show in Media. Great show in Media, BTW. There were two new songs I hadn't heard: the guitar waltz "Love is a Three Quarter Moon" - inspired by an all-Richard Rodgers cabaret evening she attended in Chicago recently, she noticed that Rodgers wrote a lot of waltzes and was inspired to write her first - and a new, SUPERB piano ballad whose title I'm blanking out on now (it kicked off the romantic song cycle). Susan did an abbreviated version of the cycle, and mentioned that she's been recording tracks for the new piano album at a studio in the Roxborough section of Philadelphia. My friend Jeanne, an Ellis Paul freak, was in the front row and had an extra seat; thanks to her I was able to upgrade to the front row for the second half of the show (Susan's half)! Jeanne brought flowers for both artists, which she threw across the orchestra pit to them. When Ellis came back onstage at the end to do an encore with Susan, he was thrilled to notice there were now two sets of flowers. "People don't throw flowers at Metallica concerts! ... Well, they THROW shit, but..." The encore was Neil Young's "Heart of Gold" followed by the Beatles' "Let It Be." "Let It Be" gets the full decontruction/reconstruction that Suze had already given to "Help" and "Just Like Starting Over" - the basic chords were Sir Paul's, but Ellis and Susan let everything else go to the wind, and it worked, including Susan's slide guitar breaks. As for the DVD, I haven't had a chance to sit down and watch the whole thing yet. But I watched a few segments today, and they are quite wonderful! Great music and great humor. Plus maybe now I'll be able to figure out some of those guitar parts... The DVD consists of a movie/documentary (75 minutes), extra concert footage (21 minutes), and outtakes (7 minutes). Here's the listing. The Movie: 1.
