subject: [ig-news] toronto show--excellent!

[sherlyn's note: this message was originally sent to the indigo
girls mailing list at netspace.org.]

i rarely post, but i didn't see anything about the shows in canada yet and
i didn't want us to go un-represented! (funny, i'm from florida,
representing canada??)  the show at lee's palace (i like to claim it's my
palace, but it's not)  was great; how could it not be in such a small
venue?  i am not the type to have to set list in my head or together enough
to have written it down, but it was a good set and much like the lists i've
seen posted from the other recent shows.  we did get to hear
chickenman/bitterroot which was most definitely a highlight!  they played
virginia woolf in the encore which was a complete and pleasant surprise.
three hits was amazing as were get out the map and the wood song.
sigh....

they both seemed pretty tired to me, though they still seemed pleased to be
there and the crowd was very adoring and i think they felt that.  amy's
voice was stronger than i've ever heard but i thought emily seemed a little
more tired.  they were pretty funny talking about the mike bullard
appearance at one point.  apparently, when they went across the border one
of the immigration guys said, "so you're doing bullard while you're here?"
and one of them, i don't know who, replied something like, "i don't know.
we're doing ottawa and then toronto and i don't know about bullard."  we
all got a kick out of that!!  says to me that they were pretty zonked.
  amy joked about being worried the immigration guys would think they
weren't the indigo girls at all.

the new stuff went over really well, i think, though the crowd definitely
seemed a little less engaged on the new songs.  i was bummed people talked
quite a lot during she's saving me, but emily said thanks for listening so
well afterwards, so maybe i noticed more than she.  i have say moment of
forgiveness and become you are melt your bones wonderful, and i was so
great to hear them live so soon.  for those who still have shows to see,
you will not be disappointed!

hi to the lawyers we lined up with---hope to see you at mitzi's for brunch
someday! lee

[sherlyn's note: this message was originally sent to the indigo
girls mailing list at netspace.org.]

hey everyone.

buffalo was a fantastic show, probably the second or third best ig show i've
seen. really, it was that good. i wrote down the set list at the show, so
this is accurate:

least complicated
gone again
deconstruction
become you
get out the map
three hits (with no band! it sounded so great and so different)
collecting you
yield
mystery
shame on you
closer to fine
starkville (this sounded sooooooooooooo great)
johnny rottentale (amy breaks string and thumbnail)
our deliverance
galileo
kid fears
- ---encores---
she's saving me
power of two (sully started to bring out another guitar right before this,
but the girls didn't need that one for this song. i think this one was not
on the original set list and was added spontaneously)
moment of forgiveness

the girls talked a lot (the part about "buffy the vampire slayer" was
hilarious) and seemed to really enjoy playing for us. it was really funny
that when someone shouted out a request for "blood and fire," emily just
laughed. amy made a comment that some of the songs folks were requesting
were so old, they didn't remember them at all. emily's voice was in rare
form, absolutely angelic. i guess my only disappointment was that i was
counting on hearing chickenman/bitteroot.

anyone going to future shows, check out the cash brothers. they were a
really good opening act with some wonderful songs.

nancy, it was good to meet you. glad you and your friends had a good time.

have a good one everybody,
tom

subject: re: indianapolis concert

the concert (as far as i can tell) is sponsored by a radio station and
will be held at a restaurant called "the rathskeller" which is located
in downtown indy on michigan street.  the telephone number is (317)
636-0396.  it's scheduled for wednesday, march 20th.  the doors open at
2:00 p.m. and the concert is at 5:30 p.m. (or possibly 5:00 p.m. - i'm
not too sure on that piece).  the concert is free but is limited to the
first 200 people who get inside the building.    apparently, you must be
inside the building to be counted as part of the 200 eligible - not
still outside.

good luck being one of the first 200 all!

maggie
