What a nice Valentines Day message from the 2 of Hearts!  :-)

Hehehe.  Sort of like asking a duck to swim in the water, or a
Jangle-Poet to
"dance around in the rain."  LOL

Kind of like when Abbott was first introduced to Costello, or when John
Lennon asked a skinny gangly teenager named Paul McCartney to come play a
few songs
with the boys.  "Doctor Livingstone Large, I presume?"  :-)

You're not Sirius!?!  :-)

Shoot.  Whatever could a couple of Kennedys call their radio show,
focussing
on contemporary singer songwriters?  Aren't most of the good names taken
already?  :-)

How about The Kennedys' Kitchen, as in "Come Into My Kitchen, it's
raining
singer songwriters in here?"  Now on the front burner... Boy is it hot in
this
Kitchen or what?  :-)

There is a hilarious song from the animated Christmas classic, "Rudolph
and
Frosty's Shiny New Year" called "It's Raining Sunshine."  Ethel Merman
does one
of the voices in that one too.  Something about "Raining" and "Sunshine"
that
just seems to resonate in a Kennedy-esque vibe with me.  How about
Sunshine
Superman?  The Mellow Yellow Hour?  8 Days a Week?  Time of the Season? 
Season
of the Witch?  I better stop now...  Don't *even* get me started!  :-)

Bruce
trying not to clutter up the Jangle-Poets the way I clutter up the Nields
Nook since I decided to have that as my modus operandi

Check out the Kennedys' Official Home Page: http://www.KennedysMusic.com/
Fab photos, the Official tour diary, dashboard Buddha haiku, groovy
merchandise...what more could you ask for?
