So I put the commentary option on, the DVD starts with the video for the song Steady On and Shawn tells us that it was directed by her friend Rick Litvin, and that it was his first video. A quick check of the credits confirmed that I did hear her right. Now I know that Rick is a Film & TV lecturer at NYU, and that Lucy and Shawn are old pals, but I didn't realise there was another connection. By the way, for the Brits amongst us, Shawn looks like a cross between the singer from Swing Out Sister and Magenta DeVine in the video, but then it was shot fifteen years ago.

"ten year night" (noting that this one IS autobiographical. duh!) "don't mind me" new song "the moon, my new friend" about lucy and molly and moon-gazing and where does it go when it gets light outside "what's so funny ('bout peace love and understanding)" "brooklyn train" "scorpion" "love song/new york" "ring of fire" the johnny cash tune with a spectacular solo by duke! dr. ruth story "this is home" encores: "land of the living" "by way of sorrow" all in all a great lucy show. spoke to lucy briefly backstage after the show and inquired about her dad, and wished him well. that's it for now. off to bed. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz richard ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2005 22:34:55 -0500 From: Benay Bubar Subject: Re: [lucy-list] joe's pub Thanks for your post, Richard! As it happened, I did make it to Joe's Pub tonight---Lucy had a large and appreciative crowd. I didn't keep a set list as such, but I believe it was the same as that posted for last night with the exception of "Turn the Lights Back On" being substituted for "Love Song/New York" and "Written on the Back of His Hand" being substituted for "Land of the Living." Also, there was no Dr. Ruth story, but Lucy did talk a bit about Molly (some of the adoptive parents with whom Lucy and Rick had traveled to China were in the audience) and mention that the ONLY music Molly will let her parents play these days is the album "The Red Thread." Thus, she (Lucy) has heard her own record hundreds of times and gotten totally sick of it! Duke Levine did wonderful solos throughout. And I was delighted to finally hear Lucy do the full version of "Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained" (and also to hear the Daisann McLane story in person at last!).
