Hopefully he's gonna do 'Crazy". But he does an incredible rendition of Daniel Lanois' 'The Maker'. Request that....



He did do "Crazy". He didn't do "The Maker", though I appreciate that clip. He wasn't taking any requests. Still drops the big Texas flag as his stage backdrop, and still shines the lights out on the audience when he hits the chorus in "City of New Orleans" ("Good morning America, how are ya?")

I'm glad I saw him, but it was a pretty subdued show. I guess about a 3500 seat venue, full of my towns finest citizens...wandering the aisle to either buy more beer or go piss beer through the whole show. He hit the stage at 7:30 sharp and took off his guitar bowed and walked off at 9:10 without an encore.

I'm not sure how old he is or how long he's been touring this go 'round, but he seemed tired, rushed and bored.

Johnny Cash gave a much, much better show, as does George Jones (coming around here again next month), John Prine, or Robert Earl Keen.
