Lucinda Williams concert to stream at NPR; pirate cat game; photo blogs
It's sultry in this computer corner in the den, and I just lost a blog item full of links when too many tabs (a few dozen) locked up my PC. So here's what's left. At NPR,
Lucinda Williams' performance from the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. originally Web cast live on NPR.org on August 8, 2005 as part of a series of live shows from NPR Music's All Songs Considered.
Lucinda is touring to promote her first live album, Live at the Fillmore. A brief review and clips are at Rolling Stone.
Captain Claw free game demo: This 1997 DOS/Windows game is still tops around here for all ages. The pirate cat takes on the cocker-spaniel armada in a colorful, fun, side-scrolling format. The full game is hard to find -- I picked it up on eBay a coupla years ago, and it might pop up again -- but these levels, which I prefer, are not included in it. Although we have both, the 8-year-old is just as likely to play the demo. Click the game-box photo at right for a screenshot.

At Blogcritics.org, the Weekly Artist Overview is Buffalo Springfield. (I saw Festival Express tonight, the documentary about the party train that carried The Band, Janis Joplin, the Grateful Dead, Flying Burrito Brothers, Buddy Guy, Sha-Na-Na, Ian and Sylvia and others through Canada for a week in the summer of 1970, so I'm awash in impossibly young images of old rockers tonight.)

Omigod! I was actually there at Lucinda's Fillmore concert! And I'm jut now finding out about the album? A depressing reminder of how out of it I've been lately. Well, I'm going to have to put up a post about this in a day or two. Thanks, as always, for your great contribution of links!
