Menomonie, you made a first visit feel like a homecoming. ❤️

Our very first show in Menomonie was SOLD OUT, but what made the night truly special was the incredible welcome we received from the moment we stepped onstage at The Mabel Tainter.

You were with us all night. You listened, laughed, cheered, sang along, and made it feel less like we were playing a new city and more like we were playing for old friends.

And what a place to experience it. The Mabel Tainter is an absolutely stunning venue, and getting to share our music with all of you in that beautiful room made the night even more memorable.

If you were at the show, please feel free to reply from a pic or video you took during the show. We love to see the concert through your eyes.

Judy Collins performs LIVE on The Mabel Tainter stage on May 21-22 for her "Sweet Judy Blue Eyes - Farewell Tour." 🌻

🎟️ Tickets: https://www.mabeltainter.org/schedule/judy-collins-farewell-tour

Judy Collins has inspired audiences with sublime vocals, boldly vulnerable songwriting, personal life triumphs, and a firm commitment to social activism. In the 1960s, she evoked both the idealism and steely determination of a generation united against social and environmental injustices. Five decades later, her luminescent presence shines brightly as new generations bask in the glow of her iconic 50-album body of work, and heed inspiration from her spiritual discipline to thrive in the music industry for half a century. Join Judy Collins as she graces the stage for her farewell tour.
