    I was there. They played Me & Julio after they went off air just for the folks in the theater, with Andrew Bird whistling away of course. What a treat

      That is very cool. I saw Paul Simon at what was supposed to be his last big concert in Hyde Park a couple of years ago. It was unforgettable - as was a 2002 concert in Edinburgh which, with the Castle and the Scottish landscape all around was epic in a real sense. But in a way I envy you being there in a more intimate space. All good though, all very good. Keep safe!

      I saw him in 1999, right before he went on tour with Dylan. He was testing he new band, Just him & his band in a tiny club in Philadelphia. Only 900 lucky people. $25 ticket. All ages, all sining along. Effing amazing
