No secrets from you, sir...But I think our feedback migrated over to 'tour dates' and (blush, blush) a bit more on 'my kid at ian'. The set list was unsurprising, the same as most of the US tour...two new songs, not three,,,and I think Florian's solo migrated up a space or three by mistake, in Modesto.....The meet up was smooth and easy; Rebecca, Bluehare, her Mom and me found ourselves 2nd row center, thanks to Bluehare's vigilance on ticket sale day...Salamander and her hubby a few seats over...I was the poopie in the punchbowl who left right after...I needed to be up at 7 the next day and it was a 90 minute drive home...next tour will find us better planned for dinner before or drinks after, I'm sure. The next day, in SF, Rebecca got to the venue early...but not tortorously so...and we ended up front row center...I did everything humanely possible to coax a nap out of my kid...and failed...so she lasted till the end of the first set. This current band is too hot and too professional, I think, for much variation...they didn't seem worn out...despite the many nites in a row and nearness to end of tour. The SF audience was bit more animated but Modesto was not sedate, by a longshot. I felt I really missed my chance when Ian, only in SF, made a snotty comment advising us not to pretend we recognized 'just trying to be'... 'Esperit D'escalier'..I thought, a few seconds too late, to yell out to him not to pretend there aren't MANY fans who do indeed recognize that song...and much more obscure songs...and that he should continue to pull out surprises like that in the future. I thought it was a brilliant tour.

What he said! The whole experience was fabulous, but as for gossip, we count on you for that, Maddog! Would write more but it seems my computer is getting ready to go caput and I'm trying to back up all my files (and there are many!)
