Re: OTR listees in Ca...
You're a lot more devoted than I am...OTR holds one slot (the most recent
release of "Good Dog Bad Dog") in my CD collection (which currently holds a
total of 23 discs, most of which are dominated by Beethoven with the Beatles
coming in as a close runner-up and Sixpence taking a slightly more distant
third). I'm very tired right now, and since I ramble a little, I apologize.
I'm very frustrated right now with the way the British screwed up the English
language, too, so I will never say "Over the Rhine have..." or "Over the Rhine
take..." or any other such perverse rendering of a singular subject followed
by a plural verb conjugation. If you have a problem, just remember that your
the one following that ridiculous rule that tells you to go against everything
you know about the English language.
Thank you.
I fully intend to get "Patience" as soon as I muster up the funds, along with
the new album coming out near the beginning of next year, I believe.
Oh, yes, OTR does have a slot with the quote at the bottom of my email, but
tomorrow it might very well be C.S. Lewis or Victor Hugo, maybe something of
R.E.M.'s invention or a little ditty by my good friend Ano Nymous.
Anyway...
Paul.

is just the same old song.

and find it’s been too long." - Over the Rhine, "Dead Weight"
