A long way from Prairie Home Companion
by Chas on 4/29/24The Egyptian Theatre - BoiseThe performance was a very stripped down version of Prairie Home Companion. At 81, Garrison can still hold his own telling stories, but it's hard to fill 2 hours w/o the variety that characterized PHC. No "Guy Noir", sound effects, sponsor messages, pr various folk groups. The accompanying pianist is a real talent, following Garrison around poetic rambles.
