John Hammond: "Get Behind The Mule"

New Morning Club, Paris, France
2/19/04

pin your ear to the wisdom post
pin your eye to the line
never let the weeds get higher than the garden
always keep a sapphire in your mind
--tom waits (from "get behind the mule")

"If You Will Not Have Me, You May Let Me Go"

Kris Delmhorst: "So We'll Go No More A-Roving"

so we'll go no more a-roving
so late into the night
though the heart be still as loving
and the moon be still as bright

for the sword outwears the sheath
and the soul wears out the breast
and the heart must pause to breath
and love itself have rest

though the night was made for loving
and the day returns too soon
yet we'll go no more a-roving
by the light of the moon

--lord byron (1788-1824)

Phil Keaggy: "The Wind And The Wheat"

Annette Summersett: "The Day Football Died"

Gillian Welch/David Rawlings: "Wayside"

wasted on the wayside
wasted on the way
if i don't go tomorrow
you know i'm gone today
