Mary Chapin Carpenter was OUTstanding Last Night !

[GalleryGod]

Small venue (1,000) Great crowd. Great Seats (5th row, Center).
and the pre-concert dinner at "Athena" was scrumpscious!

Any other MCC fans out there !??
:yourock: :popcorn: :loveya:

1. I saw her about 10 years ago or so.

It was a good show. :thumbsup:

[GalleryGod]

2. My SO, Nightnurse, is a HUGE fan ! Whenever she stops near Philly

Whoooooooooosh! We are there!

PS: Hi,Dave!

[Call me Deacon Blues]

3. She records here in Nashville a lot . . .

but I don't know if she lives here. One of my kid's teachers was a friend of hers, and I vowed that if I ever met her I was gonna ask her out (we were both single at the time). I know that sounds stupid, but hey, this is Nashville. Country singer is just another job to us.

4. Please put me on your list, GalleryGod. MCC is a treasure.

It's hard to argue with any of her compositions, but I have a very special spot for 3:

"This Shirt"

"Just Because"

and

"Other Streets, Other Towns"


Is she releasing a new CD? I hope so.

[GalleryGod]

9. This Shirt ? Audience clamored for it last night!

She did it as a special "2nd Encore"...much to the delight of the faithful.:loveya:

[saltpoint]

12. Ah! A 2nd encore suggest the audience liked what they were hearing.

Why didn't you ask MCC to come over to my neighborhood afterward for a second show?

I would have been first in line.

I am very happy you got to hear her. She's a sensibility I trust very much, not to mention a great songwriter and singer.

5. What small venue?

I'm glad you had a great time. I don't know that much about her, but what I do know of her, I like...Didn't she do a song: "Sometimes you're the bug.." or something like that?

[GalleryGod]

7. Keswick Theatre in Glenside, Pa.

That's her!
You've heard "Passionate Kisses",too.
and "He thinks He'll Keep Her"

Keswick Theatre only holds 900.
Premium Seats were only $49.00 each, which = 25% of the tickets we got for "Billy Crystal on Broadway: 700 Sundays"

6. What a woman.

MCC is smart, beautiful, kind and accomplished. I don't really care for country music, but I truly enjoy MCC's work. Thanks for giving MCC her props, GalleryGod. :hug:

8. I Had her "booked" at Goucher College in 1991-but she had to drop-out

due to Strep Throat.
I was Director of Student Activities, thus, the "booking" reference.
It was part of the job; the "fun" part.

Mary is a dream to work with. I never miss her,when she passes through the Greater Delaware Valley.:applause:

[enigmatic]

10. I agree, she's great

One cool lady and a great songwriter...

[dbt]

11. I LOVES that Woman!

Saw her playing a Rickenbacker electric (on the Passionate Kisses video, IIRC) and got smitten-er!

[jandrok]

13. I like her quite a bit.

MCC is a wonderful artist, IMO. She's certainly not afraid to straetch the boundaries of "country" music.
