Ryan Adams returns to the stage
gdobson by Gareth Dobson July 19th, 2004
Ryan Adams last week made his first public appearance since mangling his wrist at a Liverpool gig early this year.

The cult singer/songwriter appeared during the encore of a Gillian Welch and David Rawlings concert in New York. He duetted with Welch on a version of his own ‘To Be Young (is to be sad is to be high)’, and then followed it up with a cover of Neil Young’s ‘Helpless’.

He was also playing guitar, helping to allay fears that his injury would hinder him in the future. Adams is set to make his ‘real’ comeback at the Austin City Limits festival in September.

Following that, it is rumoured that he will return to the UK for a brief November tour on the 12-14th , covering London, Manchester and Liverpool, but those dates are yet to be confirmed.

Last month Adams saw the combined release of his two ‘Love Is Hell’ EPs as one album, as he’d originally intended.
