NY: After all the Attar's Gone

[Farrah]

Amazing show ... he seemed really "on" during these last two shows, especially last night. Vocals were the best I've ever heard from him, and watching his fingers flying across that guitar up close is unbelievable. Tour de force of the fingers, absolutely.

At one point, he leaned over w/the guitar and no one was reaching out to touch it like they had at the other end of the stage, and he said "c'mon! c'mon!" to me, motioning that I should "play," which was amusing. (So, of course, I obeyed. )

I've had guitar solos played right over my head before, but I don't think I can describe last night's solo-over-head experience without sounding, well, in Lindsey's words, "rude." Suffice it to say, I will be blushing if there's footage of this on YouTube.

In any case, his intensity (and his dedication) can't be beat. I'm not much of a fan of "Time Precious Time," but last night's "remembers" had me, for a moment, hooked. And "Treason" is beautiful live.

Please, Lindsey, just a couple more months of the "little machine" before you go back to the "big machine"?
