While I cannot speak for anyone else, at least I know I've done MY part to insure that this is one concert you will not miss, God forbid. Also, I will endeavor to provide you with freshly baked, all natural Cinnamon Raisin bread as home baked by the Franciscan monks in their Friary in Mt. Sinai, NY, where I live, the same bread that Dar and the End Of The Summer tour pigged out on after their Hartford show, and which Dar continues to pig out on whenever I am able to provide her with said bread (Lucy K spouse and perennial point person Rick Litvin has actually been seen tearing into a loaf with his bare hands in the middle of Lincoln Center). Indeed, this is the one and the same bread that started this maniacal baked goods phenomenon in the first place. Fortunately or unfortunately. There. Now you can sleep at night. And so can I.

As the author of the phrase, I figured if *I* had to ask that question that there must be at least a few others thinking the same (or perhaps *more* obscenely peppered) question. I posted the photos almost twenty days after the show, which would be a "score" of days (or so I thought) . . . a lo-o-o-ong time, I thought. However, "score" means twenty *years* -- *not* simply twenty). It was a senior moment, to be sure! Further, a "Ten Year Score" would be indicative of a *shortened* twenty-year period, a good thing . . . right (if one had been expecting to wait for twenty years for something)? However, it was *not* the idea that I was trying to get across at all. Are you following? Are you deleting?

You were missed on Friday. -------------- The Outpost show was terrific (once you got there and went inside and defrosted). The show had been sold out (as are almost all of Lucy's gigs these days) for weeks, and despite the truly frigid weather, there were only a handful of no-shows. It has probably been about a year since I have seen a Lucy gig where it is only Lucy--no Duke Levine, no Jon Herrington, no Billy Masters, no band--just Lucy. So this was more of a Lucy Unplugged show I guess. While I do think the added guitar (or full band) clearly brings another dimension to the music, it felt way more intimate with just Lucy up there. This was particularly true when she went to the piano and sang If You Could See. Just stunning. If you catch Lucy at a venue where there is a piano you absolutely must get her to do something on it. Somehow the piano seems to just set some additional element free in her and she channels this incredible raw emotion through that amazing voice of hers. If there was ever a song that was absolutely perfect for a movie, this version of If You Could See is it. After a few songs Lucy asked what the audience wanted to hear and played just about everything that people asked for. She did a very long set (somewhere around 20 to 25 songs) with a great mix of material from Ten Year Night, Cry3, Flesh & Bone and the Tide as well as the new material which seems to be coalescing into a very nice nucleus for something down the road. Lucy was relaxed and in great voice and, as usual, all of her stories were terrific. She spent a lot of time talking to people after the show before she (and Rick, of course) packed up and headed out into the frozen night. Great show, but, then again, they all are....
