my friend and i were bussing at a restaurant when i jokingly said to liv that he shouldn't go through a door [the door is a one way door and i have been hit in the face by it] he basically discriminated against us saying that hes been coming to this restaurant for 30 years and he can do whatever he wants he also said that children like us have no right telling him what to do, he then made fun of our attire and gave us dirty looks. this man is a dick in person although he may seem nice on stage

I sat next to Liv at a dinner at Harvard about a year ago, and he is truly a marvelous human being and performer. He said something to me, which has stuck with me ever since: Tenacity trumps talent always. How wise!

I did too! I did a 5 week summer program there and he gave a great master class. It was more of a concert/lecture and I didn't get to really "work with him" but I still remember a lot of his really insightful songwriting tips. The man's a joy to watch and learn from.

I had the great good fortune to see him about 2 years ago in Monroe, Michigan (about 30 miles south of Detroit, and 20 miles north of Toledo, where I live). It was wonderful. After the show, he signed autographs and CD's for every last person who was waiting in line without acting as if it was an imposition. What a gifted and gracious man. I wish him all the best and look forward to hearing his future work. All the best to everyone who has posted notes here.

I remember when I was little he did a concert in town and came to a party at our house afterward. Really really nice, humble guy and fun to talk to!

Livingston is one of those rare individuals who is able to clearly articulate the thoughts and feelings many of us have but are unable to describe so poetically. This is a great gift, and for him to accomplish this with such humility and candor is remarkable. Best regards to a truly genuine human being.
