Lyle Lovett and His Large Band opened the 2010 Champlain Valley Expo last night, August 28. The "very" large band performed for close to two hours to a fairly good sized crowd. Ticket sales had been slow but by show time a crowd of couple thousand was in attendance. Lovett played a few from his new CD "Natural Forces" and also many old favorites including: "I Will Rise Up" "Up in Indiana" "My Baby Don't Tolerate" and my personal favorite "If I Had A Boat." Nice way to start off the fair! Photos are posted on my page: lylelovettVT08282010.html Also a few shots from the fair: ChamplainValleyExpo.html

Acoustic Sunday’s at Armadillo’s Burritos Keene NH July 11, 2010 Mike and Ruthy Anais Mitchell and Jefferson Hammer When I heard that Anais Mitchell was playing in Keene NH I knew I had to make the hour drive down there. When I heard that the venue was a burrito joint, well let’s just say I was a little hesitant. But I made the call to Orange Earth Productions and reserved our seats. Armadillo’s Burritos is a funky burrito place on Main Street in Keene NH. They are closed/slow on Sunday’s so it’s a perfect time/place to host acoustic music and that’s what Orange Earth Productions and Armadillo’s has done. Doors open at 5 pm and they serve good, inexpensive, well made food (HUGE burritos, nachos, chili, chips salsa guac) until 5:45 pm. Performances start at 6 pm. They have a nice selection of beer and wine which they serve until closing (a pitcher of Newcastle draft was $8!!!) The show Sunday July 11, 2010 was a co-headliner of Mike and Ruthy and Anais Mitchell. Mitchell was ...
