I am so going to have to come and visit you one of these days!

[Livia]

I'm definitely spoiled, being such a music fan and living in Austin. Here's what I'm doing tonight - the rumoured special guests - Bonnie Raitt ('cause she's gonna be at the free concert here next Sunday, she's not touring now, and a lot of these other guys have toured or recorded w/ her). Other possibilities, Double Trouble (Stevie Ray Vaughan's rhythm section), who the heck knows?? BTW, Mark Andes (Stevie Nicks' former bass player) now plays with Ian McLagan. :thumbsup:
