Re: Success Story



Hello Who Freaks,

Maybe I am showing my youth here, but here goes.  That line in "Success 
Story" sounds like it is a reference to Little Richard (or some 50's 
rocker), who quit the music biz to become a preacher.

BTW, I caught PT on Storytellers last night.  It was broadcast on Q104 here 
in NY.  Wonderful show, but too damn short!  I loved the intereaction with 
the audience.  It showed a side of Pete performing that we never got to see 
during the monster staduim shows.  My only complaint was his strumming 
during the Synth. intro on WGFA.  I thought it was distracting and didn't 
fit.  I wish that he would have scrapped the synth. intro and just played it 
on acoustic, but that is being nit-picky.  A wonderful performance.  Now, I 
want the complete, uncut show on DAT!

-Joe
