Just got back from a great concert, here's the set list - I'll give some details after.
1. 14k Gold
2. Drifters
3. ? - I believe GL said it was from SSOL and we had probably heard it 1 or 2 times. Contains lyric 'let it ride' multiple times, but it wasn't 'Let It Ride' from EOM. Great song - excuse my ignorance.
4. Beautiful
5. In My Fashion
6. Blackberry Wine
7. Triangle (Mail request from Tony & Lee)
8. Cotton Jenny
9. Sundown
10. Carefree Highway
11. The Wreck
12. Alberta Bound
13. Sit Down Young Stranger (mail requ fr Melissa)
14. IYCRMM
15. Painter Passing Through
16. Waiting For You
17. Early Morning Rain
18. Restless
19. Baby Step Back
20. CRT
21. Cold On The Shoulder - encore
The concert started at 8:00 and GL seemed very loose. The Orleans Theatre seats about 800 and though it wasn't a sellout, the fairly large crowd was enthusiastic. I've seen GL at the Orleans before and I believe this concert had more "Lightheads" than usual. The sound in this theatre was excellent as usual. GL seemed in a happy mood, talking between songs. The voice was solid throughout. I believe GL likes the newer songs in concert because they suit the timbre of his voice - just my opinion. Highlights of the concert: The performance of Triangle and Restless; lost his pick early into CRT, smiled, picked it up, then hummed until the next verse. Had a smile on his face for the next minute or so, and the crowd laughed with him; Looked at a request from the stage - It was for CRT! The Lightfoot fans laughed at that one; The entire feel of the concert, loose, sweet. I know some posters made it down for this show, I'll be interested to hear what they thought. As a Vegas native, I know this was a very enthusiastic crowd for a Thursday night. I'm sure it can't compare to Massey Hall, but I think GL is taking a liking for this venue. Excuse the mistakes as I'm not a ggod typist and please, someone at the concert help me with the third song.
All the best - Dalyot
