That show at the Crystal Ballroom was a musical highlight for me, for sure.  They all brought their A game and I loved that each musician had a chance to let their love light shine..

[Jackets N Pones]

Very cool. Love Changing World so much.

Why you afraid of life
Pack my heart and soul and mind
Would love to dwell?
Why am I afraid to say what I feel and need?
Why am I afraid to live a life I'd love?

Change the pen and change the ink
Change the way you talk and think
Change the tubes and change the tires
Change the things your heart desires
Change your makeup change your curl
Change the ways of this changing world
Change the ways of this changing world

Afraid to live, live, live!
Afraid to love, love, love!
Afraid to walk, walk, walk!
Afraid to talk, talk, talk!
I'm 'fraid to live, yes, friend
I'm afraid to die

Change the pen and change the ink
Change the way you talk and think
Change the tubes and change the tires
Change the things your heart desires
Change your makeup change your curl
Change the ways of this changing world
Change the ways of this changing world

10 years already?! Good Lord. Great record and a killer show at Webster Hall.

I'm so glad I got to see one of the shows on that tour - in Virginia at an all seated place where you sit at tables.  10 years already?  It was a memorable show for the music and also it's the only time my dad has seen any MMJ related acts.  I told him it wasn't going to be super loud (it was still too loud for him), and he likes Guthrie to an extent.  I also met some Forum people for the first time that night, and we're still friends.
