Obama just gets a headstart on fixing the next one. Got into the car last night to dash to the market and turned on the radio... out came the original version of "The Times, They Are A-Changin'". Followed by "New World" by X. Now, I'm not prone to such things, but this little trip, just me in my car and this music, affected me rather deeply. Must be this "hope" thing we're all hearing about. Halloween rocked, too. Kids are fun. - -Rex ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2008 11:45:05 -0400 From: "Jeremy Osner" Subject: Re: On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 11:35 AM, Rex wrote: > Got into the car last night to dash to the market and turned on the radio... > out came the original version of "The Times, They Are A-Changin'". A blogger I read posted, under the title "3 more days" (this was Saturday), Tracy Chapman's 1992 cover of that song. Just blew me away. (And made me look up the original, to which I had not listened in a couple of years.)

I work Wednesday nights, so it's a scheduling issue. I am going to the NYC show already, but I would like to see this show more than once. Is it looking like selling out? I'm also planning on going to see Bet Williams at the Tin Angel on Sunday 11/23, so if I see RH on the 19th and the 21st, that's a pretty full week! Bet doesn't play in the States much anymore though, and she's doing Epiphany Project stuff, so that's a must-see for me.
