Now with him sitting there, she actually seems to own up to it in her own way: "Well, you know, the thing was, I wasn't happy. I just wasn't happy. I was not.. I didn't look at it.. I was looking for some kind of peace because Lindsey and I were in so much turmoil."

I interpreted it a little differently, I think she was just comparing their different ways of being angry and lashing out at each other, saying that it manifested in different ways (GYOW vs Dreams) but at the heart of it was the same thing. I'm not sure she's ceding that she was shacking up with anyone, more that she's trying to say she wasn't all that different from Lindsey in that they were both angry in their songs.

Well, she said all of that directly after saying this. So I could see how you could interpret it that way. But the way I saw it, it seemed like she was almost defending herself - at one point she started to say "I didn't look at..." as if she didn't look at it as shacking up, packing up, just that she was trying to - like she said - find some sort of peace somewhere.

I know how to save videos to my computer, but is anyone else using another way to store these? Are you just keeping a file of saved videos or downloading them to CDs or what? I wish this was more manageable.

Stevie: "He had trepidation. He was trepidated out."

[michelej1]

Just getting around to putting these videos on my hard drive:

Yes, the groundswell of fans BN found in Alabama was bizarre. It was probably made up of aliens.

She was working at the Copper Penny and a french restaurant.

Lindsey has said he listened to the FM songs too (although maybe not back to front) and he said he wasn't as impressed as Stevie was. It's not like he didn't listen at all.

Mick's reaction to learning Stevie told Lindsey they'd join FM for six months and make money and then leave, "then we're out of there," was pretty funny.

Hey, we're not aliens We just really love acoustic guitar and harmonies. Two-part, three-part, four-part - it's all good. Even ones like this:

Or these new up and comers:

Honestly, if people are drinking, it only makes sense they would go to the bathroom during a new song rather than during a hit.

I see people do that all the time. Sometimes they will prepare to go to the bathroom or the bar and they will hear the strains of a familiar tune and run back to their seats. I saw plenty of people go to the bathroom during Come, but it doesn't mean the whole show is ruined. It's not like they're going to get booed off the stage like they did over 35 years ago.

Plus, if the song is fast and sounds like a dance song, people tend to stay around to hear it, even if they don't know it. There is a way to weave in new songs without it heralding disaster as it did in the band's medieval days.

Michele, I have thoroughly enjoyed your sense of humor through all this new tour press. There was a time you seemed too serious but I think David brought out your inner sense of humor and now it's raining down for all to enjoy. I thank you for making me laugh and laugh and laugh, even when it concerns me. Like when you said, "Viv, you are falling apart before my very eyes."

I've just been saving most of them to my computer, however these most recent one's I've had trouble downloading for some reason.
