Never ever go on television in a tizzy inciting nebulous governments. -
KALE
Keep all lights extinguished.
(That ought to keep a lot of people smarter than I busy for a while.) -
OK - just got through watching the PBS show. I liked it a lot - no, I loved it. Granted, Laurie's no singer - but that didn't detract from the music's attraction for me. I thought the arrangements were excellent. You could tell he truly l…

Well, woo-hoo! I'm finally one of the 'privileged' who gets please-come-back emails from emusic. It took 6 months, but I've received two emails in the past month - the $11.99 deal for .99 first month. I'm halfway tempted to cash in on the .99 then…

@Doofy - yeah!

No release date yet, but I was surprised to learn today that Bap Kennedy is currently recording a new album with Mark Knopfler. Now, that interests me. I'm a long-time fan of Knopfler, but only more recently was introduced to Bap Kennedy, a…

Best wishes on your continued recovery, Mommio. I'm glad to hear you're doing well.
I, too, missed out on some Greg Brown downloads I wanted to get before Red House disappeared from eMusic. And I, too, have quite a few other favorite a… -
