Gillian sounds GREAT!!!!!!

From what I have heard them say everything will be available to hear on

NPR. Hope so would be nice to hear Jake and Jimmy.

Orphan Girl was the first song I ever heard Gillian Welch do on Austin City Limits....that was a few years ago.

Yeah, that was great! And it would be nice to hear Jake and Jimmy. Guess Jake was playing on the other stage when Gillian was.

They said a lot the other performers were watching Gillian from the side of the stage, but Jimmy was NOT one of them.

According to this

http://www.festivalnetwork.com/events/n ... Cube08.pdf

Jake is already done.

But I thought it was gonna be Jake, Mac and Jimmy at 5:40 or so, but I don't think that will be broadcast.

Here's the interview they did with Gillian Welch. I'd guess this will not be archived at NPR.

Photo of Levon Helm: good story too

http://nymag.com/arts/popmusic/reviews/39585/

As he relearned to sing, Helm had to also learn to be less self-critical. “I’ve always worried about singing in the middle of the note and trying to get it as pitch-perfect as possible. I can hear a lot better than I can sing, so it’s a hell of a challenge to get it to please my ear. I realized that there were a lot of nights when I’d been overly hard on myself.” He chuckled. “Now if I hit a bad note, I don’t fall out with myself a bit.”

sigh....wishful thinking....

but figure this is where the earliest post of the setlist may be...or at least some kinda review/comments from BNers....right?

I guess Jake joined Levon Helm on his uke.

This is so darn cool.
