It's on at different times in different cities, so you can cruise over to the following URL to find out when you can catch the show in North America: http://www.abc.com/inconcert/local_times.html I listened in to part of the web broadcast this morning. She played Sunny a lot, although not every station got a song out of her. She was her usual good natured self, she did a bunch of announcements for the various morning DJ's and stuff, which they all appreciated. She is a consummate pro. - -John ................................. . . John DeFord . . Sometimes the beauty of life . . ................... . . Hits like lightning . . JDeFord@BayNetworks.com . .

(we know the others...) >> Hey shawnmeisters! okay, Apollo 13 was a story she told about 3 years ago (told it at least 3 concerts that I have seen) where she talks about touring from cheap hotel to cheap hotel, and Apollo 13 was the feature movie on pay per view at every hotel she went to for several months straight... and that she felt compelled to watch it over-and-over-and-over again to the point that she felt she was in some kind of Apollo 13 void/anti-universe. something to the effect of drive/fly, eat, sleep, play gigs, and watch Apollo 13 on pay per view. She could quote the movie. She said more about it than this i think, but it was 3 years ago so my memory is a bit fuzzy. (wow... three years ago she was still playing smokey little bars and tiny venues. mere memories now.)

Hello, Today I received the Cdnow Ezine called the Cdnow Update and in it as noted below was a cryptic (to me) entry about them taking advance orders for Live '88. It appears to me that Plump is reissuing the album, though I didn't realize it was out of print. I already have a copy (and love it!) so I guess if there's anyone on the list who can't find it in their local shop they can order it through Cdnow.com. I can tell you I've ordered quite a few albums from them and their service is great. > Advance Orders > `````````````` > U2 If God Will Send His Ange Mar. 24 > Shawn Colvin Live '88 Apr. 07 Roger Branstetter "I'm a clinically-depressed fecalphiliac on prozac." - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@smoe.org with 'unsub scribe small-repairs' in the message body.

There was no opening act and the concert was on the short side, maybe an hour and ten minutes. Someone said behind me, "What do you expect for $18 now-a-days." The audio was beautifully clear, and my friend, who is not a real Shawn fan commented that he could make out every word. Her voice sounded soooo good. On many songs she took the opportunity to play around with the phrasing and the notes we are used to hearing on her recordings. Last summer I saw her with the band and enjoyed that, but this was really nice, too. My seat was okay, but I used binoculars a lot. I don't mind holding them, and you can really get into the concert. People have indicated that they would like to hear some stories. So here are some stories: She said that some people thought "Get Out of This House" was about Newt Gingrich. She repeated some of the discussion with Rosie O'Donnell's show concerning baby names. Said her sister gave her a book of baby names.(She related that the name Marie goes with everything and that will probably be the baby's middle name). Shawn kind of likes Swanhilde for a first name.(JOKE!) The other night, when told this, a woman in the audience gasped, "No!" Shawn asked her what her name was and she replied, "Suzuki." Shawn told her she got a bad deal there. She talked about Wichita Skyline quite a bit. In addition to discussing the background for the song, which has been discussed here before, she said you really need to play it backwards at twice the speed while watching the Wizard of Oz......(ala Pink Floyd). After singing the song, she asked if any people in the audience were from the midwest and wondered whether people from the midwest were maladjusted. On her last tour after watching a documentary on the Donner Party (Starvation of the Donner Party crossing the Sierra Nevadas in the California goldrush days) the band referred to backstage food as "The Donner Party Platter." In Shotgun Down the Avalance, she said she had to get her "Slingblade" imitation out of the way so the audience could enjoy the song. "I'm riding shotgun down the avalance," "mmmmmmmmmmmmm" (You had to be there to enjoy the reference). The set list included 7 songs from AFSR and 6 other songs: 1.Someday 2.Get Out of This House 3.Trouble 4.You and the Mona Lisa (She told the Lyle Lovett story re: writing songs about your kids) 5. Another Long One 6. Wichita Skyline 7. I Want It Back 8. Steady On 9. Sunny Came Home 10. Nothing On Me Encores 1. Polaroids 2. Shotgun Down the Avalanche 3. If These Walls Could Speak (I've never heard this one. Anyone know anything about it?) Merchandise on Sale: AFSR Shirts---$20 AFSR CD's -----15 Live '88 Tape------5 Larry's vote for Best Song of the Night goes to Shotgun Down the Avalance. She said that she wasn't going to sing it but the audience demanded it. I hope you all get a chance to see her live. I'll be rotating her CD's while I do my taxes this weekend.
