Saw Joan Baez in concert tonight...

[Friday]

It was an unforgettable night! She was in great voice, and spunky as ever!

I can sense the ghost of Number_6 turning in his TK grave. Heh...

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Oooo, I'm jealous!

Her later work is surprisingly relevant. I played 1992's Play Me Backwards until the grooves wore out.

What did she sing? Is she a big fat man with a moustache now? DID YOU KISS HER????

 

[whisky]

Did she sing the theme to Silent Running?

 

[Consumer]

Or "Love is just a Four Letter Word?"

(or Diamonds and Rust....even if Judas Priest's cover of it was definitive)

 

[Friday]

Eggs--she sang mostly contemporary stuff, with a few oldies thrown in for nostalgia's sake. She's left her protest music behind, for the most part. One of the highlights of the evening was when a bird pooped in her tea!

She is surprisingly adorable for her age, and no I didn't kiss her. Years ago I did hug her, tho. Does that count?

whisky--I wish she had!

Consumer--she sang both. Her encore was Blowin' in the Wind. And I disagree about Judas priest. Their version is good, but Joan will always be the Queen.
