Graham mentioned Joni right before the end of the first set. I'm the bearer of good news, he said. Contrary to other reports, Joni is talking, very lucid, and is expected to make a full recovery. Then he broke right into "Our House". Sing this for Joni, he said halfway through, and asked everybody to sing along. (Myself, I was actually singing third harmony parts through out the show (he was accompanied by his friend Shane), mostly to myself but sometimes louder...lol). At one point, some guy shouted out, I love you. Graham said whenever a man says that to Crosby, he rejects it because it reminds him of prison. He also mentioned something about a fake album they made up for him while he was in prison...Blowing Blubber for Life or something. He told all sorts of cool stories throughout the night. Great diverse set. Loved hearing Wind on the Water, Wasted on the Way, and Cathedral (yes, I was singing along doing the high part). He played a newer song called Watch Out for the Wind, written for Michael Brown who died in Missouri. He said they actually premiered it, played it live the day it was written. A really cool thing happened at the end. There was a lady named Susan in the front row. Apparently, they are friends, and her husband was seriously injured in a car accident. She had him on FaceTime/Skype or something, and so Graham dedicated Teach Your Children to them and everyone sang it to him, with him on the phone. It was very moving.
