THAT IS ANOTHER TITLE OF THE TUNE , BUT THE LYRICS CHANGE. THE ARRANGEMENTS ALSO CHANGE & A LOT OF THINGS FIT TO IT. > > Santa Margherita (with an interesting explanatory intro by Robbie) > > Tell, tell! I love "Santa Margherita". OH GOOD GRIEF! HERE IS THE GIST OF IT: "HERE'S ANOTHER OLDIE, IF YOU WILL. THIS IS ABOUT A TOWN ON THE, UM. IT'S ABOUT A TOWN ON THE, UH, OH MAN, I ALWAYS GET CONFUSED WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT GEOGRAPHY OF OTHER COUNTRIES." MIKE: "THE BOOT SHAPED ONE." ROBBIE: "THE BOOT SHAPED ONE. THAT'S RIGHT. ITALY.... I WAS THERE ONCE & IT WAS ONE OF 5 LITTLE COASTAL TOWNS. ... THE TOWN I WAS IN WAS CALLED SANTA MARGHERITA, A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE TOWN. ... I WAS THERE AT THE TIME (ABOUT 11 YEARS AGO) AT THE TIME OF THE TIENAMEN SQUARE MASSACRE WAS HAPPENING OVER IN CHINA. IT WAS OBVIOUSLY BIG NEWS ALL AROUND THE WORLD. WHILE I WAS THERE IN SANTA MARGHERITA IT SEEMED LIKE IT COULD HAVE BEEN 3 WORLDS AWAY." THINK OF ROBBIE SITTING IN A BEAUTIFUL ITALIAN COAST LINE. IMAGINE HIM LAYING BY A WHITE BEACH UNDER WARM BLUE SKIES. THEN THINK OF HIM CONTRASTING THIS LUXURIOUS BEAUTY AND TRANQUILITY TO THE TORRENT OF TIANAMEN SQUARE IN 1989.

Jordan" Subject: the weekend oh the miles i put on my car this past weekend. three states in two days. starting in birmingham to greenville to atlanta and back. oh but the shows were dynamite. i had been suffering from withdrawl for so long. i almost forgot how great the band was. my only complaints were the hecklers in greenville who would not shut up and insisted on singing along loudly with songs like sahara and other slow songs. but...the band (especially Mike) handled them well. i hope everyone who went to the shows had a safe trip. well, back to work. kevin - ----------------------------------------- Kevin W.
