I just saw Lucinda for the first time Tuesday night (she opened for Richard Thompson in Boston) and she was incredible! Good band too. Also, if anyone gets the chance to see New York's Jenny Bruce, Do It! I'd listened to Jenny's CD and loved it, but never got to see her until this week either. - -Bill ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Nov 1999 16:28:17 -0000 From: "Jenny" Subject: Re: [lucy-list] Glasgow UK Gig and T-Shirts Excuse me >Amazing....come on out there....let's see who has those other seats...so far, >it looks like all of you are in the " front row ".....

That song is my fave on TYN, it got played on the radio on saturday night. oh, did i report that end of the day got played on scot fm on sunday night? yahh.... >There was a lot of baked goods for desert and I heard through the grapevine >that Lucy was raving about the one I brought (thanks to my mom!). Guys , i have a question...what the hell do you do with the baked goods when you get them to the show??? i mean, do you sit there with them under the table strategically placed so that lucy can see em, so ya hide them and then plonk them down in front of her afterwards...or what???? >I'd have to say this weekend was worth spending 9 hours in the car, >sleeping on two different couches, and lots of lewafs. lots of what??? jenny* ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 13:49:59 EST From: SpecGlobal@aol.com Subject: [lucy-list] The Thief and The Angry Trilogy In a message dated 11/17/1999 5:39:49 AM Eastern Standard Time, tom@negrino.com writes (with regard to The Angry Trilogy): <<....And The Thief could be the third (though I'd have to say that it's easily the weakest of the three). >> The Thief has been one of my favorite songs (by Lucy or anyone else) since the first time I heard it. This song has always struck me as incredibly angry. It's all about betrayal and feeling used and, in a subtext, garnering the courage and strength to stand up for yourself. After the first sweetly sung line about sitting in a cafe, Lucy builds into this scathing (but controlled) attack on the indifference, phoniness, pretentiousness, selfishness, thoughtlessness, vapidity, arrogance, duplicity and evilness of this monster. True, the melody is fairly even tempered (until the last minute or so when she cuts loose), but, at least to me, virtually every line of this song just seethes with anger. With that said, I will now sit down, calm myself, and agree that it probably would be a lot easier to break strings on Turn the Lights Back On, which is probably what Tom meant anyway. Oh yeah, another thing I really love about The Thief is that Edges follows it--that one just chills me and then makes me grin for days as it plays in my head.

Hmm...by the way, do you guys know about this bakery. sharon you have to go to it, I was telling my friend in NY all about the baking madness, here's what she said; AWESOME!!!

Last time Lucy was over here my best options were Preston and Sheffield. I opted for the latter, and found the place packed to the gills. This time I seem to have the option of West Houghton. Lucy in a suburb of Wigan?? One can only admire such bravery. I hope Eccles cakes will suffice on the bakery front.
