DELAWARE SHOWS
GRAND THEATRE, WILMINGTON 9/14/00
- FROM: Sid
This was my first show. I've been listening to his stuff for 25 years or
more. He put on one fantastic show. True entertainer!! He did alot of old
and threw in alot of new stuff too. I was going to write a playlist but got
in a trance by him. Came out with just him and two others. No drums or
keyboards. The sound was supurb....The opening act, Todd Snider was also
very entertaining. They got together for an encore. Will go back anytime
anywhere in the northeast to see him again. I WILL NOT miss a show. Want all
to know he looked and sounded good....

First of all, the Grand Opera House is an absolute concert venue, every
magnificent twang from John's guitar was audible. This was the first time I
had seen him, and he absolutely blew me away even if he didn't do
"Illegal Smile". From "Sam Stone" to "Hello in
There" to Donald and Lydia" John both wowed and mesmerized the
fortunate 2500 or so. I'm already anxiously anticipating his return to the
Philly area.

With these words after the opening song, "Spanish
Pipedream" Mr. Prine kicked off 2 hours plus of his classics. The song
list was pretty much what he played 2 years ago when we saw him at Wolf Trap
with a few exceptions. I don't remember him playing "Please Don't Bury
Me" and "Grandpa Was A Carpenter" last time. Or "Jesus,
The Missing Years" He played all 3 in Wilmington. Todd Snider was also
great! Very entertaining and prolific songwriter and performer. We bought
his CD and he came out to the lobby and autographed it. It's great to see
John giving this guy a shot. The Grand Opera House in Wilmington was a
perfect place to see this show. Not a bad seat in the house. Great acoustics
and very intimate. I'm going to try to go to the show in WV in Nov. Thank
God John Prine is still out there doing it and giving us all the chance to
hear him live! The world is a better place with him and his music around.
