Yeah I agree Arlo was awesome last night and always at every show :)
Lincoln Theater is a small comfortable venue with moderate seating. I was surprised that there was not a full house still plenty of seats left. I even had a great time I was in better spirit this time compared to the Fall Revival show this past October where I was very depressed and was not into it. Arlo's new blue guitar is cool the hollow hole is in the top right hand corner, kinda reminds me of a fish tank or a fish puzzle I play with in the waiting room each time I go to therapy.
Last night for some reason I was very wired I cheered and screamed alot. Maybe because the school year for college students is coming to an end and no work for me this summer. Just before the Motorcycle Song Arlo was telling his story about the song and when he quoted "I don't want a pickle" I screamed "YOWWWWEEE" I was in the front row. I had a feeling Arlo looked right at me for a few seconds, after I screamed I thought to myself "I'm dead meat" :lol:

Here is the setlist for last night' show:

Chilling Of the Evening
Shade Of the Old Apple Tree
Darkest Hour
St. James Infirmary
Motorcycle Song
Haliewa Blues
Key To the Highway
Dave Von Ronk Instrumental-St. Louis Tickle
Coming Into Los Angeles(with the technology and airport security story)
Green Green Rocky Road

INTERMISSION

Alice's Restaurant
When A Soldier Makes It Home
In Times Like These
New ragtime song Arlo wrote with a snippet of Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer" at the end of the tune
City Of New Orleans
This Land Is Your Land (with Joseph and the Color Coat story)

ENCORE:
My Peace

There were two new merch girls at the table but I did not see Killer until a half an hour later and chatted with her for a few moments. There was no meet and greet after the show. POOH! It seems like this past year I am having bad luck with meet and greets maybe I had bad body odor or bad breath! Just kidding. Oh well maybe next year I will have better luck. I have not changed much Arlo, just another year older with some pink tint in my hair :D
Thanks for a great performance and a fun night as always. Like Arnie says "I'll be baaaack" See you all in July at the Church!

Peace,
Lorie

Don't worry. :) We scream too at the shows when other folks do. It's just a part of the concert experience. And the type on this darn keyboard is too small lol...

Hey, thanks. I'm going to a show tonight. First time in way too long. Over a year. Maybe more. I guess this is similar to what I can expect. I hope he does Green, Green Rocky Road tonight. Alice's Restaurant - not so much. But it sounds like a solid setlist either way.

Is anyone going to Bloomington, Il besides me? It does seem than I might be the only 'midwesterner' around. I know some of you 'once upon a time' were in the area. Please respond - I'd like to meer up with you:)
