The Boy in the Bubble - 6/30/2018

Chris Thile and our guests close our June 30, 2018 season finale with Paul Simon's "The Boy in the Bubble": www.livefromhe...

An unforgettable memory for those of us who were lucky enough to be there. Chris Thile nailed it and Paul Simon has to be thrilled.

Lol at the little girl in the audience to the left at 2:54

[@randy25rhoads]

Hahahaha, good catch.

[@joffercalifornia]

Gee, there's no question that Chris Thille puts his heart into this show. I wasn't sure about him at first, but I like him more each time I hear him.

[@mierardi88]

I'm very sad "Live from Here" was yet another casualty of the Pandemic. May we meet again, Mister Thile

[@kenvee2166]

Great job on the Simon classic (He'd have to approve!)... and nice to have Rachael Price among your "wingmen" on vocals!

[@acamar704]

Young woman doing The Floss in the front row, for the win!

[@pslsmo]

Really do enjoy the new show!!!

[@jakeroach77]

This show was just the best.

Please NPR, renew this show, so much better than PHC.

[@TAGMedia7]

Not defending PHC, but we never would have ever gotten to LFH without it.

[@BigIrishCrooner]

Considering it's an American Public Media property, I don't think NPR has a choice.

[@waterfordrs22]

I don't find it better... It's simply renewed. Thile was clearly a perfect choice to take over. He has really taken the music to another level. He seems to understand and value what PHC was about. He's run with it. My local public radio station filled the gap with Mountain Stage and kept it. I'm guessing Mountain Stage is far less money to broadcast than Live From Here. Mountain stage is a real mixed bag, it has its moments, but this show is way on another level.

[@Observer285]

Sadly LFH has been cancelled for good by APM because of covid. SUCH a loss.

[@michiellombaers3198]

I love how how you voice, sometimes subtle, sometimes more brazen, an opposition to the lunacy that's the current US government. The world is in dire need of more compassion and reason.

[@KyleHurd]

Michiel Lombaers "lunacy" lol that's cute. We have borders! ALL OF THEM are welcome here, just come legally! Pay taxes and don't be a succubus on the system. Goodness

[@mbsnyderc]

I liked this even more than the original.the intro was perfect,some people need to read those words.

[@azg314]

My favorite part of this is how happy singing this song makes Chris Thile.

[@michellelawrence9260]

Absolutely love this!!

[@jimmymac30]

❤❤❤ such a great song

[@theprizman]

The whole show should be required for all Americans

[@alex0589]

Well, that's nice.

[@MarlboroughBlenheim1]

Not sure auto cue is exactly keeping the magic alive ....

[@lucyfoster4082]

Thing I miss the most from the original is Bakithi Kumalo's fretless bass. Step up Paul.

[@JaredOLantern]

Reading the lyrics on a prompter? Lame.

[@jake.speare]

Jared O Lantern I'm not defending him but I'm not sure if you know they perform a good two hours of new content every week on "Live From Here"

[@MarlboroughBlenheim1]

Yep.
