Over the years, Loudon Wainwright III has written about being a husband, a father and a son; an adulterer, a lover, a first-class guilt-tripper, a defensive SOB who'll take the blame but not without getting his witty licks in first. Over dozens of albums, film appearances, concerts, and in a recent memoir titled "Liner Notes: On Parents & Children, Exes & Excess, Death & Decay, & a Few of My Other Favorite Things" Loudon has endeared himself to a legion of fans who feel like extended family and find his canour and humor exhilarating and therapeutic.
