It was great, right? I heard some people applauding during the opening chords, which I took to mean they were recognizing a Hitchcock classic. But maybe that was carry-over applause for him coming back out to play an encore; and/or the people applauding were confused about what he was playing. J ("There's a thin line between A and B" is a common trope in Robyn's patter; maybe not in his lyrics, though, I think?)

It makes it seem like you're meeting someone you met online for some sleazy tryst, which is perfect. Besides, given Robyn's fanbase, if you used the latter it's possible that people just might think you're humming lyrics to yourself.

Ah, the days when Robyn allowed taping..... The soundman was a buffoon and even after Robyn told him it was ok to let Mike plug, offered no help and pretended he didn't know how the sound system worked. Nonetheless, it sounds great, no songs missing. Robyn sounds tired. I can't say this was the best show of his I ever saw. No digressions, but a solid setlist of his better known obscurities. Band enters around 4 or 5 songs into things. This will not fit on one cd. Cheers, Todd Robyn Hitchcock Upstage Club Philadelphia PA usa October 29, 1999 dat(m)>cdr(0)>eac>cdwave>flac 1.
