I never quite forgave myself for accidentally leaving my provocative Roxy Music/"Country Life" T-shirt in the Disneyland employees' locker room, years ago. I used to have a cool 1986-era REM T-shirt but, four or five years ago, I passed it on to a femme friend (who was petite enough to still wear it, even after years of it shrinking in the wash).

Half of the songs on the setlist were left unplayed, with others surfacing instead. Worth going to more than one gig. Piano. Wonderful rendition of "The Man Who Invented Himself". Startlingly, achingly beautiful version of "Queen Elvis". Also "Somewhere Apart". And great fun with Morris and Robyn on different beats. `If you knew Time as well as I do,' said the Hatter, `you wouldn't talk about wasting IT. It's HIM.' `I don't know what you mean,' said Alice. `Of course you don't!' the Hatter said, tossing his head contemptuously. `I dare say you never even spoke to Time!' `Perhaps not,' Alice cautiously replied: `but I know I have to beat time when I learn music.' `Ah! that accounts for it,' said the Hatter. `He won't stand beating. Guitar. No plectra. Creeped-out American Girl. Television. Ole Tarantula. Plus a range of old favourites, solidly picked. Drums. Morris standing. Beautiful harmonies. Airscape at the end. Overall, damn near perfect. x Jim ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 10 Oct 2004 16:33:47 +0100 (BST) From: Jim Davies Subject: Re: last night No plectra. At least, not that I noticed.
