Great photo! Who took it?

Yeah, I caught them at a New Years Eve Show in Chicago close to 20 years ago. Jaw-dropping. I still can't get over how Dana played two different saxes at the same time ("circular breathing"?!).

Man, I miss Mark Sandman and Morphine. Loved that band.

^^^ Spectacular.

Been watching Season One of The Knick with Clive Owen. Bono's daughter (Eve Hewson) has a pretty juicy role -- though every time she appears on screen I break out in a U2 song (annoys the crap out of my wife).

Great, rocking show at SPACE - a small ( approx. 200 seats) venue with great sound in Evanston, IL. . Alejandro mixed in about five tracks off the new album, "The Crossing" -- all of which sounded great live. He played with Don Antonio, the band that supported him on The Crossing (and also served as the opener). The band is comprised of five Italian musicians all of whom were excellent -- especially the sax player and guitarist (Don Antonio). Alejandro closed with a blistering version of the Velvet Undreground's "Rock & Roll." I've never seen my wife dance so hard! Great night -- as

Thanks for the heads-up. Didn't realize he had a new one coming out. Hard to top the last one. I'm going to see him Sunday and will pick up a copy at the merch table.
