All those virtual giggles you can hear in the background will be Lucy List Scotland enjoying New York's unique way of spelling things.

OK... so does everyone remember when Kristen wrote us all a few months ago... asking for opinions on what she should "do" with regards to life, truth, beauty, and music? Well... for those who don't remember, she's a grad student, but she decided, in addition to her studies, to take on a part-time position helping produce shows for a local folk series. Her first big show was a Lucy gig last night... and I've heard that she's did an AWESOME job in her role as producer... and that everything went very well. :) Just wanted to pass the word!

Bozeman was fun last summer but this was Amazing! This trip was extra fun for me because I took my 7 year old daughter with me, Addie. As Kristen already given the review and setlist (thanks Kristen!) here's just a few notes. >The Revelations (with Lucy) >Veering From The Waves (with Lucy......WOW!!!) > I have to mention that Jennifer did both of these on the piano. Addie and I where right on the aisle with about 12 feet between us and the piano. I'm going to add a big double wow to Kristen's!! >Lucy >--------- >Ten Year Night (with Jennifer) > Ten Year Night just gave me the chills. They where about done and I was thinking "to get hear just this one song was worth the trip" Before Bonny Banks we heard the "Irish Whisky" story and the "Pants are Underwear" story. Very, very fun after hearing about these things happening first hand from Ian, Iain, and all. >Bonny Banks >Land of the Living (with a new third verse...she changed it alot and it is >breathtaking....i think there was a good 10 seconds of silence after she >finished > What a powerful song. At least half the folks around us where wiping their eyes, me included. >Just You Tonight/I Still Miss Someone (with Jennifer) > Lucy was on the piano for this. I agree with everyone that has mentioned it. Lucy sounds great at the piano. >The Alphabet Song > First time I had heard it. What a Hoot! >E: God Only Knows (with Jennifer) > Again Jennifer was on the piano for this one. Lucy and Jennifer together are amazing. What a treat! Thanks Kristen for jumping in there and making this concert happen! Tomorrow it's off to Hastings, NE followed by Manhattan, KS. I'll check back in late Sunday after we get home. Hope to meet more of you at the next two shows. Eric ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 7 Feb 2002 23:04:34 -0600 From: " Gina" Subject: Re: [lucy-list] Lawrence, KS setlist on the show.
