That is true.  But there are two guys that have even more experience than 
you.  They thanked us for binging our hard working bodies to the show and 
thanked us for bringing our hard-earned cash. Those two men earned it and 
were *so* greatful to us.  They are also human beings.  They truly enjoyed 
this tour mainly because of all the support, I believe.

50% of the reason that I went to the shows was to support them humanly.  What 
if nobody came?  What if they had to play the state fair?  They are not a 
charity case and they are *not* a has-been band by any stretch of the 
imagination.  They are hard working, caring, brilliant, extremely strong 
willed, dynamic men that deserve to have a reason to live.  They are still 
alive.  They made this statement numerous times on this tour.  This is what 
they do and they shocked me how good they do it.  Right or wrong this is my 
opinion and I don't give a shit who thinks otherwise. I don't care if you are 
Irish Jack.  They are not mediocre. The effect they have on the live crowd is 
just incredible. Jeff is right, here. The wisdom in the new words  in each 
version of TKAA by Pete lets me know that he still has alot to say.  
Important things.  I will be there to here it and I will not be wearing a 
scientist coat with a pad and paper shaking my head.  

No opinion is wrong, so to speak. Nothing personal here.  I enjoy this forum. 
 i really appreciate all of the experience that you all have, even 
collectively. I really dig hearing about the "good old days" and all of the 
different views that broaden my view.  Mark, I appreciate the experience that 
you have and I also appreciate Lew's, but you both still have your opinions 
that differ.  

That sex may have been damn good, but to live the rest of my life without 
any?   I just don't think that I can even imagine that.
