G.L. put on a very good show last night. He graciously thanked everyone for coming out on a Wednesday evening in such terrible weather, and performed the following songs:

Set List:

The Watchman’s Gone
Waiting for You
Don Quixote
I’d Rather Press On
A Painter Passing Through
Christian Island
Rainy Day People
Shadows
Beautiful
Carefree Highway
Cotton Jenny
Ribbon of Darkness
Sundown
Did She Mention My Name

Intermission

Sweet Guinevere
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Never Too Close
All The Lovely Ladies
If Children Had Wings
Wild Strawberries
Let It Ride
Minstrel Of The Dawn
If You Could Read My Mind
Restless
Baby Step Back
Early Morning Rain
Song For A Winter’s Night

Encore: In My Fashion

As you can see from Rick's pic's, the theater was absolutely gorgeous and the acoustics were great too...although we had a bit of trouble catching what G.L. was saying at times, because he wasn't always speaking directly into the microphone.

Otherwise, it was another great performance by "The Man" and his exceptionally talented band.
