Even though my first choice for an Ellis/Lucy duet wouldn't be a Shawn Colvin song. Duets.... we need duets recorded!!! I think there is too many people I'd love to hear Lucy sing with, it has to be a two CD set, or three...

Yes, the guy who wrote "Cold Missouri > Waters" has more than one incredible disaster song in his repertoire. Must > be a Canadian thing, I guess. He says that Lucy, Dar and Richard call him "Die, Die, Die" because of his many songs that deal with death, such as "Everyone Dies" on his new CD Road. I'm a huge Keelo fan. www.keelaghan.com He was recently on Acoustic Cafe at http://www.acafe.com/ (go to Listen to recent shows and click on James Keelaghan in the list. You need Real Audio) He mentions Lucy and Cry3. Btw, Slaid Cleaves is this week's featured artist. I've heard a lot about him, but not him. I'll have to give it a listen.

There are several instances where people will post messages using all lower case - in other words - no initial caps. Now I don't know if anyone else suffers from this, but to me, they are difficult to read. I can't for the life of me finish, what may be, a very valuable piece of information on Lucy. I invariably delete the message long before I complete reading it. It just may be me, but if everyone would please make an effort to write legibly using capital letters at the beginning of sentences, we could be more effective at communicating our thoughts and opinions to the group. Just a suggestion....

I can't usually get through most of them. But lots of the posts are also picking up somewhere in the middle of something that I''ve no idea of anyway, so...

When I lived in Maine, Mainers thought it stopped at Illinois (as wbe does). Their geographical debate circles around where "Downeast" is. There's a lot of different opinions and everyone is certain theirs is correct. I grew up in Nebraska and always considered myself a "midwesterner" as do most Nebraskans (eastern NE at least), Iowans, and Kansans I know. Since moving back here, I've had several discussions with co-workers about where the "Midwest" changes to the "West". Consensus is that it happens somewhere between Gothenburg and North Platte as you drive from east to west. There's an obvious shift on the backroads. Baseball hats (well, 'seed caps' to be more specific) give way to cowboy hats. [For you those in big cities or over the sea, 'seed caps' are baseball hats with logos for specific brands of corn seed, herbicide, etc. Yes, we have TV commercials for such things too.] So by my co-workers definition, Lucy (and Cheryl Wheeler) will both be in the Midwest this week. We know we're in for a treat; actually Lucy is too. Every artist who's come to the Listening Room in Hastings has left with only wonderful things to say. (my midwestern defensiveness just kicked in :) ) It's a great place; ask Lucy the next time you see her. Anyone else here gonna be there? :) Rebecca __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

I appreciate your request but I generally have the patience and interest to read most emails regardless of the writing style. It's just part of the tolerance of others, I guess. It doesn't mean that I can't write the way I like when communicating with everyone....well knowing that how I write is more conventional. Yet while more conventional and easier to read possibly...I rarely infuse the humor that many of the other wriiters to this list possess. And I like that aspect of the writing on the list. My two cents. wbe ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2000 04:25:04 GMT From: jalvo@mbay.net (John Alvord) Subject: Re: [lucy-list] Re: Housekeeping Issue On Wed, 15 Mar 2000 19:25:20 EST, HEYJC01@aol.com wrote: >I certainly hope I don't offend anyone on the list, but I've been meaning to >raise what may seem like a minor housekeeping issue with the group. >There are several instances where people will post messages using all lower >case - in other words - no initial caps.
