Hey Folks- I haven't posted in awhile, but thought you might enjoy
some info on the Gravity Lounge gig. Ellis Paul opened, and played a
short set on keyboard and guitar, which was well received.

Greg Brown Solo:
Goodwill
Slow Food
A Little You
Oily Boys
Pray-Merle Haggard
He Reached Down-Iris DeMent
Kokomo
Rexroth's Daughter
Jesus and Elvis
Treat Each Other Right
Samson
Livin' in a Prayer
Skinny Days
Coneville Slough
Spring Wind
E:Ina Bell Sale

-Greg was in great spirits, and talkative early. He mentioned that
Goodwill and Slow Food were requests, then went on to tell a story
about the writing of Slow Food with Garrison Keillor for A Prarie Home
Companion, complete with a spot-on impression.
-Before Oily Boys, Greg spoke of Thomas Jefferson, and lamented on
our current president.
-Pray is By Merle Haggard from The Bluegrass Sessions.
-Before He Reached Down, Greg talked about living in Kansas City
with Iris, and how this song was inspired by a sermon based on the
story of the good sameritan, which Greg said was his favorite in the
Bible.
-He sang Rexroth's Daughter as Poet's Daughter.
-The rest of the set was well-played, with an especially hot Samson.
-Fashion Report: Boots,Jeans,Henley T,Aviator Shades,Engineer's
Cap,Earring.
