About 2 weeks, Stacey Kent, the Jazz chanteuse with Jim Tomlinson, her Saxophonist husband. It was excellent, as usual, the 6th time I've seen her, I think
Lucinda Williams last Sunday and "Jeff Lynn's" ELO last night. Saw Lucinda at Woodland Park Zoo's Zoo Tunes and ELO at the Tacoma Dome. Lucinda played Car Wheels in its entirety and spent a lot of time talking about the stories and inspirations behind the songs which added weight to the performances and gave it an intimate feel. ELO was really tight, the sound was great (for that venue) and the stage and light show was spectacular.
@slaw - Glad you made it to the Courtney Barnett show. I missed her the night before, here in Cincinnati, because I was on vacation. But I did catch her last year at the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee. Great show! Proof that rock and roll is definitely not dead......
@big_greg - Full "Car Wheels". What a treat! I saw Lucinda last summer on the LSD Tour and she was the best I've seen her in a long, long time. She seems to have gotten out of the funk she was in for a few years. Question: Did she have a stand with her lyrics on the stage in front of her? I saw her in 2016 and 2017 and she relied on her lyrics book quite a bit. When I saw her last year, I don't think she even looked at it. A good sign that she is in a better place than she was a few years ago......
