RE: kd/Jane Shows

Hey, I read about the kd/jane shows with envy... I would love to attend one of
those shows, but as I'm on the other side of the deep blue sea, I won't be
doing so.Instead I'm enjoying myself with the albums.And with newly discovered
music. And old favourites ofcourse.Very much into Perfume Genius these days.
And Lizz Wright. Dar Williams too. And Antony always. Rufus Wainwright and
June Tabor. Well, too much to go on really. And yes, the list has been quiet
for way too long now. What's happening? Koen > Date: Mon, 21 May 2012 17:52:49

k.d. and Jane Wolf Trap show

Hello, everyone!

We went to the k.d. lang and Jane show last night at Wolf
Trap, just outside of Washington, DC. Jane opened the show with four solo
songs with guitar:

I Pick up the Phone (from Dragon Dreams)
You Never Know
(from Dragon Dreams)
You Don't Need (from No Borders Here)
Walk on Water (from
With What Shall I Keep Warm)

The last song was clearly the audience favorite
(mine, too). Then in the middle of k.d.'s fabulous set, she spoke of what an
honor it's been for her to spend the last month on the road with one of her
very favorite songwriters, our dear Jane! She then called Jane back onstage
and they did an incredibly moving and  beautiful version of "Calling All
Angels" together. Jane's voice for that was just perfect. That song alone was
worth the price of the tickets to me! After the song and when Jane had left
the stage, k.d. said something like "after that number it's time for all of us
to repent!" She then did her cover of the Talking Heads' "Heaven." 

Jane and
k.d. clearly have a strong affinity for each other. k.d. is totally in awe of
Jane. She mentioned that Jane's trilogy CDs, were on sale at a concession
stand. At the end of the show, after the 2nd encore, k.d. had Jane come back
onstage for bows along with k.d.'s band. Jane and k.d. left the stage arm in
arm.
