If I am going to get my Yukon Golds planted by Good Friday, I am going to have to remove a huge snow pile first.  This spring has been very slow in coming and I for one am getting a little sick of the snow.  I do have a pair of 45 year old cross country skis and every year I threaten to take them to Revolution Cycle and Ski to have them waxed, but I never do it.  I am looking forward to Easter dinner at with family in Minneapolis and as of right now the weather app on my phone does show sun and 36 degrees for a high.  I trust that you will have a great weekend.

Live from Here this week is one final March rebroadcast before the touring schedule kicks off in earnest. It is a rewind to December and a show at The Town Hall in Manhattan. Spoon turn things up on “Hot Thoughts” and “Do I Have to Talk You Into It”; Cécile McLorin Salvant sings “The Gentleman is a Dope” and “I’ve Got Your Number”; and Carmen Lynch joins Chris with insights on dating, money and happiness, and aging parents. Plus: there will be the Song of the Week tribute to NYC, “The Dreamchasers,” even more music from Sarah Jarosz and Julian Lage, a look at First Drafts of Famous Songs, and Bertrand Falstaff Heine’s take on the performance art of the New York subway. Tune in this weekend.  On April 7th there will be a new show, live from Minneapolis! (And make plans for the next few weekends: there will be live video at www.livefromhere.org  and over at the YouTube channel, every Saturday evening in April.)
