Throw My Ticket Out The Window


Gillian Welch / David Rawlings: Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You




You never know
beforehand
what people
are capable of,
you have to wait,
give it time,
it's time that rules,
time is our
gambling partner
on the other side
of the table
and it holds
all the cards
of the deck
in its hand,
we have to guess
the winning cards
of life, our lives.
--José Saramago
Blindness



Gillian Welch: (soundcheck) Ramblin' Gamblin' Willie


SWING HARD IN CASE YOU HIT IT
A WINDING RIBBON WITH A BAND OF GOLD
PUNCTUATING A SOMBER LANDSCAPE
AND ALL THE SPINDLES WHINE
