Went to the Emmy Lou Harris/Bruce Cockburn/Mary Chapin Carpenter/Patty Griffin
show last night. Except Mary Chapin Carpenter wasn’t able to make it do to some
sort of back injury. Filling in was local Tift Merrit, who I must say, did a pretty
good job holding her own in a pretty heavyweight group.
The show was more or less what I expected. Acoustic versions of
some of the better known (and/or politicaly approriate) songs by
the artists. I would of preferred a electric show, especially for
Bruce Cockburn, but I digress. Not exactly the crowd I’m
used to seeing shows either. Wonder if I was the only
person listening to Godflesh on the way to the show ;->
Parsing though the code for redhat-config-packages today
to see what I can borrow/steal/improve/etc.
