Tender was the Night

            Tender was the night this past Sunday night when I had the privelege of seeing Mr. Jackson Browne in concert in York.  He came out and opened with the rememberable "Barracades of Heaven" and a hearty round of applause.  Later in the show he sang a classic hidden favorite "These Days" where he says, "today I sit on cobblestones, and count the tones in quartertones".  His last three songs were in this order: "Doctor My Eyes", "The Pretender" and the expected "Running on Empty".  Of all the concerts I have seen, this was one of the most memorable.  Now I can finally say, Jackson, my eyes have seen the years, and the slow parade of tears."
