Wow, I come back from vacation to find 108 e-mails, no OTR Chirstmas show, and a potential Monk show instead. Sad as it may be, I'm happy for the band,and I haven't seen Ric since his final Emery show. As long as the Monk show starts after 5ish on December 19 (when my plane lands in lovely Censornati), you can count me in bay-bee!! Dawn NP: OTR _Besides_ (still wondering about those bears...,.)
