Blurry Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Went to John Prine in London on Sunday. AWESOME. He makes me wanna hump his leg. His bass player was awesome and the young lead guitarist was smooth as silk. Dan Reeder as the opener = magic. Had the whole crowd singing along with him.Here's what I got as a setlist. Didn't know the names of a couple of songs. Lost my pencil around song 17, so I think the order after that is right!?!?!1) Blow Up Your TV2) Broke the Speed of the Sound of loneliness (?)3) Souvenirs4) Broken Pop Bottle Looks just Like A Diamond Ring (?)5) Grandpa Was A Carpenter6) Whistle & Fish7) Glory of True Love8) Crazy As a Loon9) Takin' A Walk10) Angel from Montgomery11) Gonna Be A Long Monday12) Donald & Lydia13) Dear Abby14) That's the way that the World Goes Round15) Sam Stone16) Bear Creek Blues17) Ain't Hurtin' Nobody18) Some Humans Ain't Humans19) She is My Everything20) Hello In There21) Lake MarieEncore22) Christmas In Prison23) Please Don't Bury Me24) Paradise**w/ Dan Reeder (whose mic wasn't on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchoulia Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 I could be wrong, but I think that's close to the exact same setlist we got in Toronto. No complaints here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basher Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 I love his response when people in the crowd annoyingly shout out songs, hoping he will play them.His response - "I know 'em all!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Yep, he puts on one fine show. His voice, even after all it's been through, is still a thing of beauty (despite what he has to say about it himself). I was glad to see the reception he got in Toronto, after the apparently "meh"ish response he was given in Ottawa; I expect London gave him good vibes, too. I got a real kick out of how wide his smile kept getting with all the ovation - you'd think his cheeks would have popped past a certain point.

teetervillestation Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 that is almost identical to the setlist he played on saturday night -right down to Dan Reeder's mike not being turned on for the encore....?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchoulia Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 According to the interview with Dan in NOW this week, he's just a really quiet singer..so it's possible we just couldn't hear him...http://www.nowtoronto.com/issues/2006-09-14/music_feature.php"It's hard for me to find people to sing with, especially in Germany, because it's not a traditional thing that they do. They don't just freely harmonize with each other. The other thing is, I've got a very quiet voice, so if I sing with people with normal voices you can't hear me at all. I just recorded absolutely for the fun of it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calamity Jane Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 yeah...Dan Reeder was an absolute treat...totally unexpectedly PURE GOLD!!! I found his banter hysterical...for someone unfamiliar to the stage, he had a very engaging presence!similar set list, indeed, though I'm jealous of the Please Don't Bury Me tune....which coincidentally I was belting out at the top of my lungs on my drive home today. Twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
