I wasn't aware previously, but this is the third year that the VVAF (Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation) has presented the series "Concert for a Landmine Free World". If you can swing one of the dates, absolutely go -- a much needed organization (ticket price all goes to the charity), and a fantastic evening of music. It was a round-robin format featuring Emmylou Harris, Mary Chapin Carpenter (w/ John Jennings), Bruce Cockburn, Steve Earle, Patty Griffin, and Nanci Griffith (w/ James Hooker). You don't often get much more talent on one stage at a time! Remaining dates are: Monday Dec 3 -- Detroit, MI @ State Theater Tuesday Dec 4 -- Cleveland, OH @ Playhouse Square's Allen Theater Wednesday Dec 5 -- Pittsburgh, PA @ Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall Thursday Dec 6 -- Glenside, PA @ The Keswick Theater Friday Dec 7 -- New York, NY @ The Beacon Theatre Sunday Dec 9 -- Alexandria, VA @ The Birchmere Set list follows for anyone interested... Emmylou -- Red Dirt Girl Patty -- Truth #2 Steve -- Valentine's Day Nanci -- Clock Without Hands Chapin -- Come On Come On Bruce -- (?) "Justice done on somebody else..." Emmylou -- My Baby Needs a Shepherd Patty -- Top of the World (wow) Steve -- Hometown Blues INTERMISSION Nanci -- Traveling Through This Part of You Chapin -- Bells are Ringing (from "And So This Is Christmas", 1999) Bruce -- My Beat Emmylou -- The Pearl (stunning) Patty -- Ten Million Miles Steve -- Goodbye Nanci -- It's a Hard Life Chapin -- Late for Your Life Bruce -- Mines of Mozambique Steve & ALL -- Christmas In Washington (Come Back Woody Guthrie...)
