Anais Mitchell was a very good opening act - beautiful voice. I think I saw her open up before as some of her songs sounded familar. Richard played a nice set, on an array of guitars. Some highlits for me: He mentioned that the new album was coming out eventually and said that Acadian Driftwood (yay!), Senor (yay!), and Texas Rangers (was cool the one time I heard it) will be on it. Cold Missouri Waters was a nice treat. Fishing was done on the electric and in a more slow, atmospheric way - very nice. Che was on the electric and it agve the song a darker feel which I liked. Are You Happy Now was a really intense version - maybe the best I have heard. I can't wiat for the new album. Here is my memory of the sst list: Reunion Hill Fenario Waist Deep in the Big Muddy (Pete Seeger) Last Fare of the Day Acadian Driftwood (Robbie Robertson) Texas Rangers (trad?) There Goes Mavis Simple Song Cold Missouri Waters (James Keelaghan) Fishing Che Shirt Are You Happy Now Transit - -encore- Senor (Bob Dylan) _________________________________________________________________ Dont just search.

I'm soooo happy that he's definitely doing Acadian Driftwood. I haven't heard Texas Rangers yet; hopefully he'll play it at the Lexington show tonight. Can't wait. - --Chris - -- "We were born in a dark age out of due time (for us). But there is this comfort: otherwise we should not know, or so much love, what we do love.

Center section, seat B9, face value $28.50. If anyone is interested, please email me off-list. Thank you. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2006 00:26:07 -0500 From: "Chris Foxwell" Subject: [RS] Lexington MA, 4/1 show Just got back from the Lexington performance. Richard played his heart out, it was a great great show. All of the cover songs sound much more polished, and he sounds much more confident with the electric guitar. Awesome. Richard confirmed that the new album "should" be out by May, and "maybe even by the end of April." Here is the set list, with a few comments: 1. Lawrence, KS (on bouzouki) 2. Fenario (on acoustic) ... very, very sharp guitar work here, it sounded incredible 3. Waist Deep (acoustic) 4. Acadian Driftwood (bouzouki) ... confirmed that this would be on the new album, as Adam mentioned from the previous night's show. Sounded amazing as always. 5. Reunion Hill (electric guitar) ... for the first time that I've heard, Richard played the full fiddle/violin part on the electric, to great effect. In the past, I've only ever heard him start into that lick, while playing with the ending and making it into something simpler. 6. Che Guevara T-shirt (electric) 7. Cancion Sencilla (acoustic), with usual intro and translation 8. There Goes Mavis (acoustic) 9. Senor (bouzouki) 10. Fishing (electric), sung in the "hushed" style. 11. Mercy Street (acoustic), by Peter Gabriel 12. Next Best Western (acoustic) 13. AYHN (acoustic) ... as Adam mentioned, this was a really pretty rendition, played softly but with great sincerity and heartfeltness. Richard also threw in some really pretty octave jumps when singing the final words of each line, starting with the second verse. I really liked this. 14. Northbound 35 (electric), gorgeous. Richard confirmed that this would be on the album. 15. Transit (electric), played nearly flawlessly. 16. The first encore song was Springsteen's "Born in the USA", on bouzouki. It was very interestingly arranged. First time I've heard him do this. 17. A Donde Van, by Silvio Rodriguez. All in all, an excellent excellent set. - --Chris - -- "We were born in a dark age out of due time (for us). But there is this comfort: otherwise we should not know, or so much love, what we do love.
