Anyone here going?

[jmm]

I will and at Jones Beach and the Steve show next week - if I hear back maybe some more Spectacle tapings too

Hoping for lots of good stuff to write about like Smokey and Police covers being tried out before the tapings (ala From Head to Toe)

As I've said before it's a good time to be an EC fan in NYC

I would go if I could find a good ticket

4. everyday i write the book
5. american gangster time
6. chelsea
7. 45
8. flutter & wow
9. turpentine
10. watching the detectives
11. alison w/ stinK
12. peace, love & understanding

Nice show but really felt short and a bit rush. Standouts for me were both Flutter & Wow and Turpintine that have really grown and filled out since we heard them back in NOLA at Jazzfest. The trade-off of the vocal with Sting on Allison was surprising good

Seemed like one of the few times during the night that String was actually enjoying himself

[verbal gymnastics]

Sting aka Stink and String from our last two posters

[jmm]

String was NOT a spelling error by me

nor was stinK by me...notice the capital K
