I've been bronchially indisposed for over a week and haven't read anything, but I hope that all of you are well. I scraped myself out of the house to see of Montreal on Thursday night. It was an amazing, outlandish, insane extravaganza with lots of costume changes, skits, and bare skin. I loved all of it. I'm going to die if Obama doesn't win this election. And my daughter got her driver's license this morning. I'm crawling back in my hole now.

Ahmed (the new drummer) very nearly makes up for the loss of the awesome Matt Dawson on bass.

(Except the bridge that starts "What is love made > of?" -- this seems to me unequivocally characteristic of The > Egyptians.) I think you're generally right - although I can hear that bridge as a Paul bridge. It's the other, earlier bridge that's non-Paul - something about the way the chords slide sideways seems Georgian to me...although that switch from major to minor is something John did a lot in the early days. But I'd say the odds are extremely good this was an intentionally Beatley song. - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 1 Nov 2008 15:37:01 EDT From: HwyCDRrev@aol.com Subject: so you think you're in love . ..

We were at the early show sitting next to Woj and his lady...who I just saw in NYC at CMJ btw...great to see them...Bottom Line R.I.P! Saw RH there a number of times, once playing Flavour of Night on the piano... "Full Moon In My Soul" was a highlight...also I had a little audience exchange when RH asked if anyone had taken mescaline recently...lol someday I will get over the teenage thrill of interacting with him but that was fun... that was great fun as my wife and I (was tempted to write "the wife" but thought of Jill and thought better of it :-) ) were on the road and commuted down from a Ramada Inn near West Point...not many nights out together during the road years.... anybody going to the World Cafe Live show in Philly on Nov 19th? I am buying my tickets right now... ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V16 #765 ********************************
