I notice that at a tiny concert venue in Truro, Massachusetts, near where I hide for my summer vacation, some really important names come by, such as Graham Nash. In the 1980s, when he was still part of CSN, he was filling Madison Square Garden. I've gotten to see Béla Fleck, Jesse Colin Young, John Mayall, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Dave Mason, Arlo Guthrie, some really class acts at this tiny tent out on the tip of Cape Cod. We have yet to see Cheryl Crow there, but maybe that is only a question of time (we should be so lucky!!). I don't care if her net worth exceeds that of Jeff Bezos--if she wants to come play Truro, Mass., I will be there!
