Note that the first two were nearly twenty years ago, so my memory > isn't exactly fresh. it's been awhile since i saw him with the egyptians, and to be honest, i was way too girly to notice anyone but robyn back then. but i've seen him with kimberly a few times, and i do believe that those boys do some rockin' out (and i'm speaking as someone who doesn't much notice electric guitars unless i get whacked on the head by one.) first time i saw robyn play with kimberly was one of the so-called rock armada shows, then the pre-album soft boys reunion, and then the post-album. each time, the two got better and better, and by that third show, they were just going nuts on those guitars. i didn't really fall for robyn until i saw him play an acoustic show, so i really loved seeing his acoustic shows over the years. but i have to say, after seeing him acoustic so many times, and finally (or at least sort of) facing the cold, hard truth that that he probably won't be leaving michele for me anytime soon, it's really great fun to see him play with a band. as ever, lauren - -- "people with opinions just go around bothering one another." -- the buddha ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2008 11:39:21 +1200 From: grutness@slingshot.co.nz Subject: Re: fegmaniax-digest V16 #572 >From: "Marc Holden" > >This was my first post in a long time, at least since coming back from New >Zealand, where I very nearly missed meeting up with James and his girlfriend >Alice.

Iggy's opening to "TV Eye" 2. Daltrey's scream in "Won't Get Fooled Again" 3. James Brown's entire career of grunts, sharp intakes of breath, yells, bellows, howls, screams, and shudders. Any others? - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V16 #573 ********************************
