Laura Cantrell was charmingly ingenuous, won the crowd over by knowing the difference between Birmingham and Birmingham, and sang somehow more warmly than on her recordings. I heard people complaining about the excessive guitar heroics of her band, but I'm quite tolerant of that kind of thing when it's done in a country/rock n roll fashion rather than the interminable dronings of Pink Floyd's unfortunate reunion.

Yeah, it's "buur-ming-HAM" versus "BUR-ming-um"
