Does anyone know if Leonard performed Famous Blue Raincoat at the Beacon Theater? It's not on the NPR download.
I have Live in London and I've just cut out Chelsea Hotel and The Partisan from the NPR download to give me all but one of the songs Leonard performed in London in November. I just need a recording of Famous Blue Raincoat from the current tour and I'm set. Any help would be much appreciated!

Yes, he performed it at the show as one of the encores (exact order of concert can be found in the set list above). Unfortunately, it was not among the songs selected for the NPR excerpt. I understand from an e-mail exchange I had with Jarkko that it is possible that selected full concerts might be made available to purchase as downloads as the year goes on. The Beacon show, which I had the privilege to attend, would be a great candidate for release.
You can find a link to a video of FBR from the April 3rd Dallas show elsewhere in the Forum.

Those people who have downloaded the NPR podcast of the Beacon Theatre show, be aware that the podcast is no longer available at NPR. Not only that, but my download has vanished from my itunes library and from my ipod! I believe that this must have happened after the release of the CD this past week, and that it must have been triggered by a visit from me to the NPR site.
NPR says that the agreement with the label was that the podcast would be up only until the Live in London CD/DVD was released.

Thanks Rob.
If anyone has a HQ audio version of FBR from the 2008/9 tour, drop me a pm!

If you could pass that on to me as well, I'd be most appreciative.
