Yeah, when I heard the first few familiar notes of Poughkeepsie, I thought
I was in for a long night.  Of course, everything turned around with the next
pair including a full "Cast Me Away" which I can't remember hearing before.
So everything turned out all right for the most part.  The happy surprise and
amusement outweighed my normal feelings of boredom and I even stopped
comparing for a while.
Definitely some good thoughts went into this one.

Anyway Dan and Ysobelle were a couple rows in front of me.  Jan and Toast
were a couple seats to my left.  I saw Drew and Bink.
I saw Bruce walking toward the Taft but then I never saw him inside.  (Bruce!)

I also saw the Cow person and talked with a couple of guys that were there
for Leo Kottke and wondered who these Over the Rhine folk were .
(Isn't that a part of town around here?) : )

It was a good night.

good night,

Ron
