Where was that, David? I wonder if I was there?
The Channel. It was a Los Lobos show with True Believers opening. I saw Hoodoo Gurus and The Replacements (separate shows) at the Channel that year too. Also The Bangles at The Paradise.
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
including a scaldingly great one from 20 years ago with the True Believers.
Speaking of which, how's Alejandro Escovedo doing?

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
20th Century Boy by T Rex is a freaking GREAT song
It may be the freaking GREATEST song.

how's Alejandro Escovedo doing?
Last I heard, he was doing pretty well, but that was a few months back.
So, I just listened to The Mars Volta's Frances the Mute, and I'm sorta ambivalent about it. There's aspects to the music I really like (the space-rock/free-jazz wackiness), and aspects that push all the wrong buttons with me (the Yes-ishness), and I'm not sure which will ultimately sway my take on the album.

I definitely was at that Hoodoo Gurus show (Big hair! Ahhhh!). And I saw the Bangles at the Paradise the second time they came around. I know I saw the True Believers somewhere around that time, but can't remember if it was that Channel show. I really wish I'd kept a diary.

how's Alejandro Escovedo doing?
That reminds me I think I saw something about him touring now....YES!
He's in DC on Sept 30. I hope that means he's doing a lot better.

People don't recover from Hep C, do they? Isn't it one of those diseases that's always fatal, but can be minimized with clean living and the right combination of meds?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yup. Very often the way Hep C. kills you is that it leads to liver cancer.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
actually, that's no longer true from what I understand. A friend of moonlit's had hep-c but he was put on an experimental treatment, and from what I've been told, it's now cured.

That's my understanding too, Jimi. I guy I know (bass player for The Bevis Frond and formerly of Hawkwind, Adrian Shaw) told me he was cured.
