Good to know.

Albany and possibly this but Portland might be calling.

Would like to see Sean Miller again as well.
Love many, trust few and don\'t be late.

show was pretty good. not a ton of .infoers but i nice turnout of beatles freaks. let\'s see: i remember dr. robert, hey bulldog, within you without you...i forget the rest. 10 songs total. ron couldn\'t make it (strept), but they found a serviceable replacement bass player. not sure if i\'ll be at the december 13th concert, but it sounds like the guys might have a wrinkle or two for the show.

oh and i met eddie munster there.
