    Anyone have a download code for his new album? I'm hoping to pick up the vinyl around Christmas time but money is short right now. I have a fair amount of ones I could trade. PM me if you can, please!

    The DC show was nothing short of incredible. He's in an astounding place as a performer, getting better and better which I didn't really think possible...

    New York Beacon Theater is sold out for Tues, but Mon in Brooklyn is not sold out. Go if you can!!! SamJam and others already going, you are so in for a treat!

    Beacon was amazing. Astral Weeks is always a highlight. Smile tag and a "looking for Eddie Vedder" drop in at the Hoodie Ledbetter part.

    The Didn't He Ramble > Way Back > This Gift run was incredible.

    Nothing is better than acapella Glen just singing his heart out. And the crowd too on the auld triangle.

    Just amazing and fun and happy as always.

    I really am still thinking about this week's shows. Both NYC shows were fabulous, per usual. The new songs sounded even better live than on the album, and I have a whole new appreciation for the album in general after attending the shows.

    Glen is hands down one of the most captivating live shows you can ever see...really a treat for every single second. The setlists pretty much mirrored each other both nights, save for a few songs, but that's OK with me...I could hear him sing every night! Highlight the first night in Brooklyn was Her Mercy to close. Glen brought up someone in the audience (I think it might have been a friend, but really couldn't tell) who had a powerhouse of a voice and just belted the song in a reprise sort of way after Glen sang most of it. Another highlight was Heyday. Love that song. And the Kings Theatre is probably the most beautiful venue I've ever been in, and I've been in quite a few! Breathtaking in there. Beacon show was fantastic as well. So good seeing you again, shetellsherself! Overall, Astral Weeks, Lowly Deserter, and Come Away To The Water were great to hear too. And Glen's stories were fantastic, as usual. He has a real gift with words, whether singing or simply just telling a story.
