The music wasn't bad (or I guess I should say the "sound"), but they had this red old-timey phone booth to the side of the stage, advertising a hotline for teen runaways, 1-800-I-LOVE-YOU. And they didn't just mention it once, they stopped the show several times to point to the phone booth and go on this diatribe about runaways... It was VERY weird.
OH! I've been downloading the Airplane reunion shows like crazy from Easy Tree and they're fabulous. The first couple aren't very good, but by the end of the tour, they were tight. Grace sounds fabulous and does White Rabbit at every one of them.
