Saw Steve last Tuesday in C'ville VA at The Paramount. Seats probably 400-500 and it was sold out. This is my sixth time seeing Steve and he is great at every concert. This one was especially good as it was solo and his words were more dominant than with the whole band. I have been to this venue before and never seen the crowd so up for an artist. Great applause and appreciation for both Ms. Moorer and Steve.

Took him some time to talk to the crowd (which is unusual for Steve) but he did after 6-7 songs. Since he has so many great songs, it is always interesting to see/hear his set list. Actually like the "DJ" sound which was used on 5-6 songs.

Ms. Moorer opened and also joined Steve for 3-4 songs. I was hoping she would be backup on "Goodbye" but Steve did solo. "Cooperhead Road" was done without a mandolin and a "regular" guitar was used. "Copperhead Road" has special meaning as I saw Steve do this song one of the first times.

My husband and I drove the 160 miles to see Steve in Charlottesville last week.  We really enjoyed the show and thought it was well worth the trip.  It was our first time seeing him live in concert, he doesn't seem to come this way very often.  Thought we might have to take a trip overseas just to catch his act......We really like the Paramount, had been there once before to see Todd Snider (who was opening for Yonder Mountain String Band).  Going up to Annapolis, MD to catch Todd next week-end, he's my favorite right after Steve!  My husband likes them both, but his favorite is the old country stand-by, Billy Joe Shavers.

'Course we also like Bob Seger, Billy Joel; The Beatles; Joan Baez; Rod Stewart; The Dixie Chicks; John Prine and many, many more..............................

We don't like:  Brooks and Dunn, Toby Keith; The "Get'er Done" guy; most anybody wearing fancy cowboy hats and big belt buckles; Rush Limbaugh; Shawn Hannity, and many, many more...........

Hey, he is Billy Joe Shaver, no "s" at the end at all!

And I completely agree with your dislikes!!
