Yeah. I never paid much attention to them. They seemed to fly below my radar screen, which I guess is not that hard. FPM seems to have pretty good antennas. Oh well, I'm always late LOL. |

I like that quote "in his prime". I wonder how Jerry Lee Lewis was in his prime. |

Johnny Cash
I remember going to the Stones show at the CNE in Toronto back in '94, the next day, Johnny Cash was playing a free show there. I kick myself now for not going when I had the opportunity. I have seen his brother, Tommy, perform though. |

Voodoo...you like Syd?
I know what my next present to you will be.
I'll send it out after Max's tree is done.
As for people I've missed....well, I'm lucky. I've seen most of the people that I really wanted to see. But here are a few that I'll never get a chance to see...and a couple that I'm still holding out some hope for.
Dead uns--Beatles, Clash, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, The Replacements, The Ramones, Nirvana, and all the great bygone bluesmen. XTC are still kickin, but they don't play live...so I'm screwed there.
Still gotta chance--Tom Waits(Nasty, are we there?), The Pogues, Prince, The Dirtbombs
Neil Young was on that list...but I just got tix(row 15) to see him this March. I'm assuming that we'll both make it that long. There is a rumour of a Pogues reunion tour in the spring. Tom is a wild card. He doesn't really tour per se. Prince doesn't do a lot of live shows either.
Joe Strummer's death was just crushing to me. I know that I'd be holding tix to a Mescaleros show for the Streetcore tour that would have been. Damn. |

To find out listen to Jerry Lee Lewis Live at the Star Club 1964. It is the most rockin' thing EVER. He was positively crazed and brilliant and out of control.
The sound quality of the recording is miraculous.
You'd love it, too, Throbby!
Rhino and Bear Family have had versions out in the past.

At one point in the show the crowd is starting to chant "Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!" and he's so pilled out of his mind he starts chanting "Jerry" along with them.
SS -- anytime anywhere Tom Waits is playing I will be there -- have blown it too many times in the past to blow it again.

Thanks Nasty! I will find that disc. |

| Sir Stonesalot |
I've blown it way too many times with Tom myself Nasty...I know EXCACTLY how you feel. Maybe even more so because if I had not pussied out the last time...I probably would have met Keith too!
I'm holding back some comp time at work just for Tom. I will not miss another opportunity. We should try to hook up for Tom. Now THAT would be a night! |
