A Celebration of Life for David Olney at The Belcourt Theatre, Nashville, TN (March 9, 2020)

[@peatlejville5392]

First time I have seen these years after David left this world an indelible mark on me and I have only known him by his songs and on youtube . From New Zealand I want to say thank you David.

I just today remembered the first song I heard by David Olney "If it wasn't for the wind". It's always stuck with me. There in my own personal top ten. And I ended up doing that Google thing, and spending my Sunday evening watching this lovely celebration. And it makes me want to keep going with my own music, at a moment when I doubted for a moment. Thank you for this lovely, very human, way of remembering. Music is human. Songs are life. I love the way that David Olney's songs were simply a beautiful reflection of the life he shared in this world with his friends. Perspective. That's the thing to gain.

Mary Gauthier eloquently carrying the torch. We STILL love you, Dave.

An amazing night. Nashville in PTSD-mode due to the tornado. The nation waking up to the notion of the impending pandemic. Yet people came from thousands of miles away, or just a mile away came to celebrate David's life on this night. As we should have. Thanks to all. Ramcey in Nashville

The memorial was magnificent and deeply moving, I'm so grateful I was able to share my love for David Olney with so many amazing people. Malcolm Holcombe channeling David on Deeper Well was absolutely electric, what a marvelous rendition.

loved the way he could take words and use them to fill in the little voids, the in-betweens, with connecting matter....closing up the cracks so the real doesn't fall through.

Wow. Stunning information. I didn't know he had died. Enjoy life up there, David, enjoy the hell out of it. You have a great style. Be what and who you want to be, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I'm sorry I didn't comment more, bad times here at the house. I'm looking forward to a concert in the next realm one day.

Does anyone know the name of the song about the prostitute in 1917? Thanks.

Too bad David never played Ypres

Thank you for posting! If you have a second, I recorded some original music. As a fellow music fan, I'd love if you'd take a listen. It's on my channel. I appreciate it!
