That show is scheduled to be webcast tonight. Details are at
www.cowboyjunkies.com/main.html. The Junkies are great. Margo is the most
gracious performer I've ever met. (Granted, I haven't met that many, but
she's at the head of the pack by far.) If you get the chance, stick around
to talk with her after the show.

Michael is an older brother, Peter is a younger brother and there are three
other siblings not in the band. Alan Anton is Mike's old (well, long-time)
friend. They're still touring for the rarities collection, but they'll have
a new cd out this fall, so they're doing 3-4 new songs each show, and a good
selection of the older stuff.
