well, you dont really get a sense of the drinking, the scenery,
the drinking, the miles, the drinking, or the drinking,
but yes - obviously the tunes on the CD *had* to have come
from the 92tour.

oh. erm.. beside the order of the CD tracks being different
from a typical show, i think it is fairly accurate.
fyi - Still And All almost always started the show, and the
covers (or the odd old tune) would come at the ends.
Shirley always preceeded Racheland which ended in a big big
howling mess before the covers started.

ok - heres the deal. i will be spending some time with
my turntable this weekend, and i plan to dump all my LPs
and singles to DAT. when i get back(*), we can discuss taping-fests
for people who need copies. just to be ethical though, i will only
dub the older singles. go and buy the newer albums yerself!

it still is planned to be released on TriStar in the US.

tentative germany tour:
Feb 1 - H'Burg
