Hi All,
William Prince is a wonderful performer. He played at the Luck Reunion this year and that was one of the highlights of the event. ( and from Canada too)
I'm definitely looking forward to hearing Chris Pierce's opening set. I don't know how or when Neil heard about him. I hadn't heard anything before this tour announcement, but when I looked him up, i discovered he'd recently played with Sunny War, a fantastic young folk artist I came across just before the pandemic. Even wrote to NYA to sing her praises. Who else has played with Sunny War over the years? None other than the Particle Kid.
I really hope the audience will give this performer the respect he deserves. One of the most painful show recollections I have was seeing the incomparable Tracy Chapman at one of the first Bridge shows being heckled during her set. It was disgraceful and i sincerely hope these audiences will listen to what Chris has to say.
I remember Chapman at a couple early BSB shows. But I'm usually on the lawn so it would be easy to miss that. Terrible disrespect to a talented performer donating her time to a worthy cause. I remember Sonic Youth being booed basically driven from the stage. I believe they had sound problems too. If only we could get the message out to the ppl who need to hear it. Lest we forget it's not just the opener who deserves our quiet respect. We don't need anymore Rough Nights .
