FEATURED BOOTLEG

This week:  St. Bonaventure, NY 10/28/1999

Another beautiful sounding show from the fall of 1999. Recorded October 28, 1999 in Saint Bonaventure, NY. A wonderful full band show featuring Ani, Daren, Jason, and a freshly baldheaded Julie! The show starts off with a fun version of Virtue before heading into LPC, Fuel and a beautiful version of Providence with Ani's vocals just pulling you in. Out Of Habit>Pulse are up next and deserve your full attention! From there we go into You Had Time, Angry Anymore, and Every State Line. The set ends with The Diner and Shy. But not yet done with the evening, the little folksinger leaves us off with a triple encore of To The Teeth, Gravel, and Carry You Around.  New bootlegs featured every week, airing Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights at 9pm CDT and Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings at 4am CDT.
