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
