Any Phoenician Hippies gonna be at the Van Morrison concert Wednesday night? I have been listening to Van all my life, I remember sitting on the floorboards of my Mom's 1966 Oldsmobile and listening to him on AM radio. Probably around 1971. I was 5yrs old, but I so remember his music! Let me know! Strider '88
I have every one of his Cd's but his latest. I hate it and can't believe he did a C and W CD. He lived in a house behind me and wish he would come visit town again.
Update...the concert on Wendesday night was awesome. While he played a rather short set, 90 minutes, it totally rocked...his singing was so passionate, and with your eyes closed, he sounded just as he did 30 yrs ago...(not like some other aged rockers I have heard recently.) His band was awesome, but just a backdrop for the real power in the show which was his singing. Here is the set list. Boogie Woogie Country Girl Back on Top Pay the Devil Stop Drinking There Stands the Glass Cleaning Windows Days Like This Wonderful Remark Stranded Moondance Jackie Wilson Said Bright Side of the Road Playhouse Here Comes the Night Help Me Baby Please Don't Go Precious Time Don't Start Crying Now/Custard Pie Wild Night Brown-Eyed Girl Gloria
