Here, I stand on the platform at Chicago singing "Amy in the White Coat" (Conor Oberst), then board the train westward where I sing the incorrect words to "Dirty Old Town" (Ewan McColl), followed by an unflattering rendition of "Four Loom Weaver" (Ewan McColl), and arriving at California with "This Side of the Blue" (Joanna Newsom), for which I do not pretend to know the actual melody.
