Good for Jodi!  Keepin' in touch with her roots.
Wonder how she felt about missing the last Who tour.

Naaaa, they wouldn't get it.

Only if he finally decides to give and take oral.

Now you're workin' !

Is it a touch screen??????? Or, maybe scratch and sniff. ;-)~

*That* would be a show, but not at the Slumber Bowl.  I'd love to see
Townshend and Clapton play together too.

Hey, if Jesus Christ can be cloned via fluids from the Shroud of Taurin
(sp?), then why not???

butt?

No comment.  Wonder if Bjorn ever smoked the rest??????

Ummmmm......

Phewww.  Yes, it moves in mysterious ways. :-)

I love these virtual reviews!  Great one!  I feel like I was actually there.
Thanks.

I would imagine, but then again I hope he's considering the source.  If TED
is only looking to keep us older fans happy, then they're set.  I was very
happy with the Lifehouse art, etc. (except that the letters on the CD's
didn't add up, but who's counting ;). BUT, if they are looking to connect
with and spread into the youth culture, they need to re-evaluate.
Don't get me wrong, just because the younger generation is doing "it",
doesn't mean they are doing it right.  TED should influence them however
*they* feel is appropriate.  There is a clear message in packaging.
Packaging takes a bunch of thought too.

If indeed studio time will happen in September, then songs must be done, or
close to it.  If not, then only 2 months to get it together!
Ahhhhhh, Party at John's house in September!!!!!!!!
All eyes are on Europe this fall.
If it all happens, It's my hope that there will be coordination of shows,
and even area where we all get B&B's, etc.
Man, it could just be a WHOLE LOT of fun.
Schrade might even have to change his sig. to:  "SCHRADE In Europe" (not to
be confused with any National Lampoon movies about vacations, etc.).
