Last night was the Richard Thompson concert at the Egg. Dear God in heaven, I think I may have found a new religion. As I said to Colleen after the show, "I want to be a woman so I can have Richard Thompson's baby."

All the gory details... )

Richard announced that his next album will be out in January or February; if what I heard at the show is any indication, YOU MUST BUY IT. You shan't be sorry. (Oh, and if anyone has an illegal tape of the performance, call me, okay?)

And thanks again to Colleen for agreeing to ride shotgun, and for saving my heinie when I missed the expletive-deleted exit on I-787. She got blown away and is totally hooked now, so my planned corruption of the world continues swimmingly. They had no T-shirts for sale, but they did have a few not-available-in-stores live CDs offered, so Col sprung for Semi-Detached Mock Tudor Live 2000 for me. The other one they had was a 2-disc set, but this one has "She Twists the Knife Again," which I've been playing non-stop (good news: it's the first RT song that Abbey has asked to hear again. That's my girl!)

Oh, and Cricket the dumb-as-a-bowl-of-Grape-Nuts dog does not have Lyme disease. This actually is not good, because she clearly has something, and at least Lyme disease is treatable. Will keep you posted.
