I don't like FFG. I prefer songs with more of a melody. The best I can say about it is that I admire her for keeping it in the setlist. It's not familiar. It's not what people expect for her, but she committed to it and for the long haul, not just for TISL. So, that was unusual for her and I applaud it.

I don't imagine Lindsey in "Girl Land." But in the People magazine article it does say that Lee Lee liked to help him do his hair. Reeve Lindbergh wrote about her father once. He was said to be cold and austere, but she recalled how he used to have "comb over" hair that grew long, to cover his bald spot and he used to let her braid that long hair when she was playing around. So, she thought he couldn't be all that cold, if he tolerated that.

I'd love to see Lindsey sitting there letting the girls play in his hair when they were toddlers.

In that interview the guy did talk about their coming a day when young men would come around to take Lindsey's daughters out on a date. That was funny to think about.

Michele
