Hi Alisa! i remember you from way back when. The years have really flown past!

Moxiebean, are you home yet? I hope you found your house in good shape. The pictures I've seen of the flooding have made me so sad, but I guess we have to be grateful there wasn't greater loss of life. Check in when you are able. You too, Carrie (smells like flowers). I hope all is well.

Hey all of you who find yourselves possibly in the path of this monster, please stay safe! Check in once in a while if you can, and let us know how it's going. I hope it turns out to be much ado about nothing, and Matthew veers off harmlessly into the Atlantic. Good luck!

WHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Thanks, Griddles, those are going on my want-to-read list.

City of Thieves - David Benioff Life After Life - Kate Atkinson

Author?

I know exactly what you mean.

Which ones just really drop you in your tracks? The ones that, no matter what you're doing, you pause to sing along with? Or the ones that just make you swoon inwardly as you seem to manage to carry on a conversation? There are so many in this album! "so I'm not sure what's in her place/ maybe roses or Tanqueray" "sometimes I wish to set free/ the things that still matter to me" "And you know we could go spend ourselves like money/ Let's pretend we're hundred dollar bills" Somebody else's turn.

Name me a book you wish you could entirely erase from your memory, simply so that you could discover it again as if for the first time. A book so good you wish it could be brand-new to you again. I'll go with "The Brothers K" by David James Duncan

Hey Doug, I'm not sure why messages weren't going thru, but try again now. You can send just a test message first if you like. (I can't test message myself.) I've been getting my pm's regularly and don't see a reason it wouldn't go through. Glad you had ended the exchange & apologies because I misread the time stamp on it. That's what I get for squinting at my phone screen.

Ok you two...when the conversation becomes one exclusive to two individuals going back and forth, it's time to realize that your conversation is of interest primarily to yourselves. In other words, time to take it off these public forums and into private messages, if you care to continue the discussion. Please, and thank you.

I love your review, Uncle. Especially your take on Common Sense. (track 4) That one has continued to grow on me, detail by intricate detail.

Good luck getting tickets, Mariana!

I know, right? The title song knocks me off my feet every time. But I don't know how you guys can rank the albums...to me it'd be like ranking animals, they're all a bit too different to compare: Uh..... tiger horse dog giraffe hamster elephant cat lion cow shark and I know I left some out! Oh, oh! Goat has to be in there somewhere...maybe about halfway even...and raccoon is really good, too....

I thought I'd ask again...any of you wonderful stealth photographers get any pictures of Kevin Morby & band?

Wonderful performance! Loved it. Jealous of you getting to see the taping, smf!

Weren't they great??!!

A moment later as the crowd got a bit rowdy, some people beginning to call things out, Jeff warned, "Your audience ratings could drop."

Paul, how in God's name did you get that review composed and posted so quickly??!! Impressive! I just want to say: If I only have one show like that in my life, I can die happy.

Yes! And it seems like there are always a couple whoopers in every crowd, who wait for the quietest moment. Last night (14th) Jeff started into the poignant "Happiness" and at the quietest, sweetest moment, some woman blurted out, "I love you Jeff!" Hey, did anyone get any good photos of Kevin Morby & band? (Weren't they terrific?!)

Absolutely agreed! And, how intimate and intense was "Happiness"?!

Thanks Carrie! Will check that out!

I can confirm the setlist as printed was exactly as you have it, Paul. It was great seeing you. Awaiting your commentary!

Radio Cure was simply gorgeous last night. So intense.
