Emmylou Harris Live at Lincoln Center! - 7/19/2005 12:30 PM Tower Lincoln Center (1961 Broadway, New York, NY ) Spend lunch with Tower Records as we welcome Emmylou Harris to a special afternoon acoustic performance!

Don't miss your chance to see one of the true icons of alternative country up close and personal!
