We bought tickets to hear John Prine sing about four months ago, and last Friday was the night of the concert. I had never been to a concert at Ste. Michelle Winery in Woodinville, and it was a lovely venue. The weather was perfect that evening, with cool weather after a hot 80-degree day. The sky was cloudless, and it was so relaxing to sit on the grass on a blanket and watch the sun go down over the winery. You could see the hilly wine country in the distance, and the sky was filled with hot air balloons wafting silently overhead.
John Prine got his start singing folk songs in the 60's, and was heavily influenced by Steve Goodman, who was a friend of his. They performed many of their songs together for many years.
It was relaxing lying on a blanket on a grassy field, watching the stars in the night sky, and hearing music that was so evocative of my youth in the 60's and 70's. It was a wonderful evening.
