She is, I love her! I think she should come over here too, but she has given me a cool reason to keep going back to the Seven Wonders board. They are actually quite a kind, sharing bunch over there.

Marcella also posted this Chris and Lindsey Tusk-era pic too:

that's "tusk" at the Hollywood bowl..doesn't that one rock!!
the magic of a zoom lens!
Imagine having a 2-disc CD of the bowl shows with liner notes by ken tucker or steve pond & that big color photo on the cover, along with nice verdana lettering that says:
The Mighty Mac
at the Bowl
Los Angeles CA
8.31.80 & 9.01.80
& the bowl logo with palm trees underneath!!!

I haven't had a chance to check out the Seven Wonders board today. Marcella has posted some fantastic pictures there WITHOUT those annoying watermarks & in high resolution. I have all of the pictures that she's posted, but hers are so much better. I have no idea how she's been able to get rid of those Corbis watermarks & get them in high resolution.

Now wouldn't that be great if they'd officially release something like that next year? I assume that they recorded both of those shows. I have audience recordings of both shows, but I'd love some sort of a high quality official release. Those were great shows!

haha, my mother is left handed and was made to use her right in school. the left hand was "the devil's hand" apparently. there is even a word in irish for people of this sort, ciotog. unfortunately now my mother cannot write with either hand in any legible sense, so a lot of good that did.


these pictures are great! i love the second one. . .i will always maintain that chris is the only person who could make the accordian look sexy.

That was done in the USA also!! My grandmother was lefty and they made her switch; her writing was therefore eternally atrocious. I inherited her left handed-ness and luckily was allowed to remain so!!

That said, I can do just about everything extremely well w/ my right hand except write (although I can write on a chalkboard w/ my right hand quite nicely, just not on paper.) We lefties learn to cope in a right handed world.

BTW, FWIW, I also play guitar right handed-- 'the normal way'. Do people actually learn to play it another way if they are left handed?! What was the deal w/ Jimi Hendrex and Paul McCartney, were they lefties?
