Central Park SummerStage Show Tonight

[SweetSaliva]

Anyone going to this? I think I am going to pass. I saw her play earlier this year and it is WAY too hot / trains are a mess. She's playing Brooklyn Steel next year...where there is an air conditioner.

Never thought I would pass on a PJ gig.

^ She's not touring next year, though, she's already played Brooklyn Steel in April. Central Park and Wolf Trap are her last shows in the US for THSDP - then it's Europe for the rest of the summer and South America in autumn. Who knows when she'll tour next.

Oh, and:

[SweetSaliva]

You're absolutely right. I somehow read an old email yesterday that was advertising the show at Brooklyn Steel that took place in April. Oh, well - enjoy! Hopefully, some video will surface.

That setlist is beyond dreamy.

[Maximus Decimus]

The show was amazing, my favorite of the NYC shows this tour. I hadn't seen recent setlist, so highway 61 caught me completely off guard as well. Has she performed The Community of Hope or Anacostia with a choir before?

[rubidoux]

^ No, it was the first time. She also performed with them last night in Washington, but that's it. Now the tour's moving to Europe - without the choir.



The choir is the same one that was featured in "The Community of Hope" video.

really great

[Glindathegood]

Yes, but River Anacostia and Community of Hope were great with the choir. I saw her at Wolf Trap in Virginia. I was in the second row. I have never been that close at any concert before. It was amazing.
I'm in withdrawal from PJ now! It's a little sad she won't be coming back to the US anytime soon.
