Maybe Basia's booking person can get cracking on it while the late night shows do the big changeover. Hey, when does that all go down, anyway?

Haha! Yeah, I've got nothing. Did the EPK rile everyone up? lol Dunno too much how much this all works with the late night shows, except that when my brother's band was on Conan it was because of their booking agent who had clout booking big national bands and could get then in the door. Maybe Basia's booking person can get cracking on it while the late night shows do the big changeover. Hey, when does that all go down, anyway? I saw that Jimmy Kimmel took the Conan slot and NPR talking about Leno going off soon, but aren't all the shows supposed to go backwards an hour or something? I go to bed early these days. ;) Leslie - ----- Original Message ---- From: Thelma & Lonnie To: basia@smoe.org Sent: Friday, March 20, 2009 11:02:00 AM Subject: Re: Half a Sentence as Leslie would say.. albeit possibly not at this time... Woot ! You could go Monday or Tuesday... Monday gives people time to camp at Borders on blow up mattresses... "Just kidding, just kidding" (quoting Kristen Wiig) How lucky to be on the front row... that is how I felt in Atlanta when a bunch of us got there early enough to do that. I admit that I took the hand written set lists that were taped to the floor...kept and framed one and sent one to Desianto. I laughed at your fathers advice as I have tried to teach the opposite to my 6 kids... my dad was more "There is nothing that can't be improved upon." (Pusha pusha push... old Italian song) He was an illiterate genius with a 3rd grade education, numorous patents and a Presidential Citation with a funny story attached to it. Life.

The whole situation mixed me up. As for the radio... not trying to be a pessimist but a realist: things are very, very different than they were back then. Radio is said to have far less importance now with people preferring downloads and customizing their own experience, but I do not know myself. Except no one I know listens to radio, but I only know a few people ;) Whatever works, will be great!
