Notes and References

I did a show Sunday night in Nashville and it was three hours long, which is too long for people my age or anyone else. As the writer and host of the show, I could see all its mistakes and weaknesses clearly, but the audience seemed to like it and some parts of it they really loved, like Heather's blues singing and Heather and Aoife's duets, and during intermission the crowd stood and sang hymns with me, the auditorium having once been a gospel tabernacle, and the sound of Southerners singing was remarkable. And after the show, I slipped out the stage door and ran into nine or ten security people, all in uniform, and they told me how much they liked it. That really made the evening for me. I don’t recall cops complimenting a show I did. So I think it was good enough.
