Saturday night, November 30, 2019, I saw Arlo Guthrie at his 52 - and Final - Thanksgiving Concert at Carnegie Hall.
As usual, it was superb. Bu there was one thing different:
In all the years I've watched him perform, this was the first time I've seen him play "Ukulele Lady" on a ukulele.
A beautiful little Pegasus uke; Couldn't really see the headstock from the audience, but his web site has a photo of the uke, when he got it in October.
The sound was, of course, amazing (And Arlo also does a slack key guitar piece he wrote years ago while he was in Hawaii for "The Byrds of Paradise").
So I finally got to see Arlo at Carnegie Hall, after years of saying "Maybe next year". I'm glad I got off of my butt!
