A great 45minute vignette from Eilen Jewell and her band, keeping it reasonably up tempo so no Codeine Arms. Managed to get a request for High Shelf Booze which she duly obliged. Still do not understand why she is not bigger. Spoke to Lucinda Williams who was there with her husband/manager Tom Overby and who manages EJ too, anyway Lucinda sat to the left of the stage and was getting well into the set. Had a nice chat with EJ after, it is so great that your favourites are so readily available.
But what made the gig exceptional was the setting, starting off with a clear blue sky before darkening quickly showing off the towering office buildings that surrounded the square.
Thank you LA for a very memorable, if some what short gig.
10/10
