As if we would.

We caught some good West Virginian accents in "Super Size Me" on the 
weekend. It's a good movie; makes its point without being preachy. 
Barfophobes might want to skip the first Double Big Mac experience.

<I don't suppose anyone recorded this since I got this digest the day after
it happened...  It looks like they are a month behind or so on their
archive so I might be able to wait a month.>

<URL:http://kexp.org/streamarchive/streamarchive.asp>.  then put in may 5
at 12:00, and you're ready to go.  the uncompressed stream stays online for
two weeks.  once the show enters the live show archive, you'll only be able
to listen at 96k.


<I wanted everyone to know that Brian has done it again with a track called
Cavalier...>

"Cavalier" is a truly great song (the alternate mix, especially), but
"Kansas" is a damned *miracle*.


<Robyn was saying this to Lou even before the SB's got back together?>

he's said it about three-and-a-half billion times since he broke up the
egyptians in '94.  as far as the soft boys are concerned, during his KEXP
interview last november, he analogised them to an antique car, saying you
oughtn't take it out of the garage very often, or you're likely to ruin it.
 also during this interview, his reaction to the question of andy's
whereabouts/status was about as icy as i've ever heard him.  he later
warmed up a bit, saying, "as far as i know, everybody is doing fine."  but,
i don't think we'll be seeing an egyptians reunion any time soon.


<Remember that Robyn only announced that he was leaving the Soft Boys
(2003) in mid-March, after Matthew had already left the band.>

matthew predicted to me via e-mail, shortly after the 2001 tour, that he
thought they'd record an album, and have another tour, before it would "all
blow up again".  prescient, indeed.

frankly, even though it was a lot of fun, i was pretty embarrassed for
robyn that the young fresh fellows called kimberley out to play one of his
songs during their sets on the west coast dates of the '01 tour.  the soft
boys were playing any number of robyn's post-soft boys songs, but couldn't
play even one of kimberley's?

This would be a fantastic bill.  I hope someone gets their ears and
lets them know there are folks who'd love to see it happen....

And here I thought your subject line was asking whether Robyn being
backed by The Magic Band would sound sort of like The Fall.

Actually, it would sound a lot like _A Can of Bees_, when Robyn's
Beefheart jones was at its most intense... I know this is probably about
one act opening for the other - but I'm also imagining Robyn singing the
Captain's parts...that would be an interesting concept!
