    Awesome live footage 8-) . Check out "High Hope" where he breaks a string and doesn't miss a beat. Can't wait for the pre-order to ship and, moreso, to see him open for Ed.

    I just watched tonights performance on Fallon, and it was great. You can feel Glen's passion for his craft even through television signals.

    If you're reading this, and the guest you were taking on the 12th cancels on you, consider my young man (I'll wait outside); he's a completely awesome kid -- sweet, mature, very well-behaved (excellent concert manners!), a total music geek and a Glen Hansard fan. I'm not just saying that because I'm his mom, either; you won't regret helping this kid. :)

    Bump... Anyone have a change in plans??

    Rhythm and Repose LP/CD just arrived in the mail :D . I've a feeling this one is going to settle into the rotation for a while.

    Glen's doing a show at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC on 6/28 if anyone is interested. Very small venue. Should be cool :)

    His show at Bookstore Cafe the other night was so great.
    Very much looking forward to another small venue show.

    I was bummed about the Beacon being on the 29th since I leave for Prague that day.
    Was thrilled when he added the Housing Works show.
    And this show at Le Poisson Rouge is just the cherry on the sundae!

    I couldn't make it that night so I'm so happy this date was added. Now I need to hear the new album!!!! I didn't preorder so I will have to wait until Tuesday... unless a gracious person on this board helps me out :D:lol:.

    I'm not a huge Glen Hansard fan (don't dislike, just don't have the capacity to take on another artist :lol::lol: ) but LPR is a great venue! I love that he is playing there. It's not the first time too, I think he was there sometime last year. I wasn't going to go because I'm sure I won't be packed for the Europe trip by then, but got tickets anyway so now I have to :)

    I love shows at the Housing Works Bookstore cafe too, I was bummed that I didn't know about that show.
