A few weeks back people were asking about Steeleye Span.

I just saw them in Philadephia with Renaissance and Fairport Convention on
Friday and Saturday nights.  (Complete luckout, as I live in California.)

They were going to Washington, New York, Boston, and Toronto.  Nothing on the
West Coast.

They played about 45 minutes.  As well as I can remember:

Hard Times of Old England
Black Jack Davy
Black Lung Miner
Let Her Go Down (Swim for Your Lives)
Thomas the Rhymer
When I Was on HorseBack
All Around My Hat
Cam Ye O'er Frae France
Royal Forester
Gaudete

There are a few songs I can't remember.

It was one of the best concerts (allowing for the short performance) I've
been to.  Maddy Prior's voice is magnificent, and she used a wide dynamic
range.  The group played together precisely...of course they're pretty
familiar with the material.  I would recommend getting tickets immediately,
and hope this message makes it to some of you in time to make a difference.
