Greetings all! Man, I really felt last nights show in Northampton was exceptional. Loudon seemed invigorated and ready to perform. The set list was as folloWs:...
I'll add some commentary to this post. This was a great show, mostly because of so many new songs and/or new to me in a live setting. It was a much preferable...
A few more things I thought of. Conspiracy is the poem about Santa. I've seen "You'll Never Change" referred to as "The Days That We Die" but I don't know if...
One more comment. It was a night of mistitled requests. Double Lifetime was requested as I Want A Do Over or something like that. Someone also shouted out...
Nice to hear some chatter out there. I was also at Boston & Northampton, and I agree with much of the previous posts. i had forgotten about the "N word" in the...
I also am asking for opinions on the subject of requests. The previous poster was right. I had to laugh as one enthusiatic fan did yell out incorrect song...
Well the N word is in context after all we are talking here about a stage play based on the amazing book by Carl Hiaasen called Lucky You about a black women...
Loudon Wainwright III Hugh's Room, Toronto Sunday, November 30, 2008 The first of two sold out shows at Hugh's Room Has me exiting seven o'clock rain and wind ...
My take is that an artist puts togehter a set list of songs just as they take care to put togehter the list of songs on a cd. The song titles and the order are...
Requests at Loudon's shows don't bother me so much, not as much, for instance as at Richard Thompson gigs. I love White WInos so much that I'm happy to hear...
Rufus and his three main women are cooking with Martha Stewart tomorrow - that should be a gem! Not to mention the only incentive that could get me to watch...
I recall the first time Richard Thompson toured Oz - in the 80ies (as opening act for Loudo, actually - both solo) I was so excited. I called out for my then...
Oops , sorry guys - don't know why I was thinking tonite for Letterman when it's actually Wed.! Presumably he could still also do a brief cameo down the...
I too have see loudon dozens of times. Some shows as you mention are better than others. I agree with your view that he tucked all those songs away years ago,...
Loudon Wainwright III Hugh's Room, Toronto Monday, December 1, 2008 Some of the posts on the Loudon Digest have said The songs on Recovery should've been left...
I did an interview with Loudon W.III for the current issue of shaking like a mountain (www.shakinglikeamountain.com). Thought people might like to see it and...
Most of the time, I think he let's people yell out requests until he hears one he was planning on playing anyway. ... -- Larry [Non-text portions of this...
BINGO I agree But thats ok...because I rather go to a show and hear the songs that the artist intends to sing....rather than a set list made up from 10 people...
A fantastic show from Loudon, who seemed in excellent spirits tonight. A generally serious (very focused) show, with the usual comic relief thrown in. His...

Does anyone know what happened to four of the songs on the tracklist shown on the sleeve of Recovery? Namely: I Am Here, Octopus, Edgar and I Had A Feeling. ...
The only one which rings a bell is 'Edgar' because Loudon has mentioned the title in several interviews. While doing all those jobs to pay off his Dad -...
