Wow. I don't really remember typing that.
I do, however, remember that I was really drunk on
fine local micro-brew and sake last night.
Major apologies to the entire list and especially Mr.
Threw the PBR lover. I have no idea this morning what
I was thinking when I suggested that someone had naive
opions about music. I'm not even sure what that
means.
If it's any consolation, I have a horrendous hangover,
thought not as bad if I had been drinking PBR...
to steer back to topic... there was a great show at
the Temescal Art Center Last night.
cheers, uhhhhh,later,
jingle
