Suzanne Vega Live at Warsaw Palladium 16th June 2017


Had been almost two whole months without a concert, so I was always going to enjoy Suzanne Vega at Warsaw Palladium last night.

Was also nice to go to a gig were I knew almost every tune in the set, especially the older stuff ('Marlene on the Wall'; 'Small Blue Thing'; 'Solitude Standing'; 'Left of Centre'; 'Luka'; 'Tom's Diner'; 'The Queen and the Soldier' etc.).


Hats off to great guitarist Gerry Leonard, of course.


Below, there is the Deutsche bank emblem leaving nobody in any doubt as to who was promoting/sponsoring the gig last night:


First saw Suzanne Vega at Glastonbury in 1989; then at Manchester Apollo in the early 1990s.  Also saw her at Warsaw Stodola in 2014.


Really enjoyed the 90-100 minute set last night, was just what I needed.  My favourite tune of the night?  Had to be the last encore, 'Rosemary', it was beautiful. 

So glad I've caught up with Suzanne Vega's music again over the last few years.
