‘Linda Eder’, Full Of Verve, In ‘Wolfeboro’ (NH), Last Night, Was Vivacious & Vibrant — Getting ‘Great Waters 2023’ To A GREAT Start.

Linda Elder‘, at ‘Wolfeboro’ (N.H.) last night, was vivacious & vibrant in what was truly a virtuous performance (in unforgiving heat & humidity) full of verve. The ‘Great Waters‘ crowd, loved it. All I heard as I stood by the side of the stairs (in my capacity as (v. low-level) ‘security’) was people raving about it, how good ‘she’ was & how much they enjoyed it. Linda Elders did us, i.e., ‘Great Waters‘, proud. Thank YOU, Linda! It was, for us, exceptionally hot & muggy & we in New Hampshire have yet to master air conditioning. {Smile}

Linda was HOT — quite literally — & she much appreciated a battery operated fan that she was given, halfway through, by one of our Board Members. Two of her band players want these pictures of Linda & the fan. Here they are. All yours. Just attribute them, if you can. {SMILE}


It was a great show. OK. OK. Some of her repertoire {AMAZINGLY} was before my time — despite my advanced years. But, some of it also has to do with the limited access to music, movies, stage & culture I had growing up. {SMILE} Remember, I didn’t wear shoes till I was past 14.

But, she did a song from ‘Sunset Boulevard’. Ah! I have seen the musical at least THRICE — once in London & then, at least twice, in New York. {I am trying to catch up to ‘Princess Di’ on ‘Phantom’. I am still about 9 shows short.} I enjoyed that.

It was good. It was good. Quite the lady. Very classy. She talked about letting her hair grow grey. I could relate, by most of my hair has fallen out BEFORE they turned grey. But, as my (still rather amateurish) photos show, she looks GREAT.

This was a GREAT way to kick-off our ‘Great Waters‘ 2023 season. Thank YOU, Linda. I am still smiling.

Just 6 concerts, but it looks great.

Very excited to have ‘Neil Berg’ & his amazingly talented troupe back. I was lucky enough to see them 2-years ago. They rocked.

I am also lucky enough to have seen ‘Neil Diamond‘, in person, c. 1972, in Bristol (U.K.).

20-years ago, I also saw ‘Abba’ when they did their partial reunion. So, a good match for I. I am pleased.


Review of last year. Please check out the YouTube video (below).

YouTube video (4.5-minutes long).


The 2022 ‘Great Waters‘ season with its 6 concerts; 5 under the BIG tent (i.e., ‘Concerts in the Clouds‘). 140 still photos, that I took, stitched into a video with background music (though, alas, not from any of the concerts (so as to avoid copyright issues)).

It provides a fairly decent picture — ambience & all — of what the entire season was like. Check it out. I am sure you will get a kick from it.
