I'm not sure. I havent talked to her since her dad passed. I got ahold of Jason her husband and tolf her to say hi. I know shes planning on going to some. Are you thinking of going to Cincinnati too?

Butterflies...yes. Two more days until the album and eight more days until I head out to the States.

My presale is tomorrow, so I have presale butterflies.

I feel really calm about it, strangely - not like usual. Sure, I got good tix right away - and that helped a lot.
But I have this bigger, more cosmic feeling about it. We've waited so long, and there's been so much effluvia surrounding The Linds, that I feel like suddenly everything has fallen into place, and is all good, and everything is as it should be, problem free. If Linds actually embarks on something, it must be right for him - thus making it more right for us. You guys know that moody, exacting, standardous-perfectionist beeyot that Linds is! If he's ready, it must be good. We've already collectively decided on other threads that he doesn't need the money, right?

Airy fairy aside, I do feel an uncommon sense of calm about the Lindsey. I feel like I will easily go to the show, problem free, and then be presented with such perfect beauty as I have "never" seen.

I guess a simpler way to say all that is that I feel inside my essence that everything has fallen into place perfectly, and that is what most, if not all, of us will experience in attending these shows. Aside from traffic, of course!

It all just feels so right, and so calm - know what I mean? Again, seriously, I've never felt so sure and comfortable about concert stuff.

Amber, I had that same feeling for TISL/front row/Santa Barbara. It WAS cosmic. Right up to the very end. I got a double whammy ticket on the freeway going home after leaving the airport. I was trying to quit smoking at the time, so didn't have ciggies with me and was gonna wait 'til I got home... where my ciggies were... so I was in a hurry. My bad.



Rhetorical dumb a** question: Why didn't they release a single to the regular FM stations so I could listen to it in the morning.

I just noticed something... I like the website.

Er...I don't know what you are talking about with the single and website. I bitched out my radio station for not playing Linds. But they've announced him as a new artist (I'm not sure if they played his song) and are giving away first five rows tix for him this week.

As far as TISL - maybe the kind of seats you get dictates how calm you feel...
Though I feel compelled to say I was calm even before the tix.

Traffic tickets are a mere blip in the FM scheme of things. It's almost proper to get a speeding ticket cause you want to get to the Stevie so fast! You're not going to end your life thinking "that ticket sucked, I would've totally traded paying for that with my giant Mac opportunity" No, not gonna happen.

I wasn't sure if regular FM stations were given "authority" to play the single since the website says the single was released on iTunes. If so, they shoulda been playing it by now. I mean they play Goo Goo Dolls singles for God's sake. No... good seats don't count for the calm. I've had good seats and been all wrung out with worry that I wasn't going to make it for some dumb reason. Know what I mean? You're right about the traffic ticket. It was so way worth paying a traffic ticket to shake Stevie's hand. I woulda paid 5 traffic tickets... well, okay... 4.

The august announcement...and then here it is happening! I just hope the hours spent at the shows don't breeze right on by. I always want that time to last forever. Know what I mean?

THey will breeze, they always do, and you may have a Lindsey hangover. And yes, I always want them to last forever as well. I seriously got depressed after my Mac shows.
But though the joy is ephemeral, all joy is ephemeral. We can't hold onto it, so we have to remember it and enjoy it while it is happening.

*sigh* I know, it's hard. We never get the Linds, and his tour is so short (although he has a buttload of SoCa dates, so you are pretty lucky).

I haven't listened to the new music (wanted to wait) but I feel comforted by the whole thing anyways.

And I know you are correct in the joy bit. I am attending three of them so I will have plenty of joy to reflect on if there should be a downtime. I am hopeful, with the success of this tour, there will be another after the 2007 release. A girl can dream. I so want to attend the santa barbara show as the venue is cool with the mural backdrop but on a sunday of all days. When you do hear the tunes I think you will have a fuller understanding of the ease you feel.
