Last Wednesday, Linda and I went to the historic Bijou Theatre in downtown Knoxville to see Abigail Washburn. We thought it would be a good show, but we were wrong.
It was an amazing show.
Have you ever been to a show where the musicians were having such a great time that you couldn't help smile and get completely wrapped up in their joy? That's the kind of show it was. We were blown away, not only by that, but by the fact that every note was straight on - crystal clear and practically perfect. At one point, they stepped in front of the microphones and did an unamplified version of "Keys to the Kingdom," and it was absolute magic.
Go out and find some passionate musicians to listen to, people...it can do you a world of good...
Love her music. Great new-"old time" musician.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the show. Bummer she is not coming the Charlotte or NC anytime soon.

The way you explained your experience was perfect, I definitely get it. I love seeing live shows, I'm just amazed by people who can "play." Wish I could. And yes, I bet you'll be in a great mood for a few days from the music hangover.
