Thanks for taking notes! I forgot my Palm and was getting terrible pictures where I was standing, so I hoped someone was writing down the set list!

What a great night! I saw a few familiar faces from the old Maxwell's days - Jim Testa remarked that is was like a high school homecoming game! I thought the band sounded great in spite of the technical difficulties (I saw the Swingin' Neckbreakers last Saturday and they were plagued by problems, too)

As far as the songs went, it was great to hear "Love is for Lovers." I think that was the first song I heard getting commercial airplay (on WLIR) and I just *had* to check out the previous albums. "Living a Lie" and "Lonely is as Lonely Does" have personal significance in that they helped me through some rough times my junior year. The others, well, let's say they kept me from falling asleep at the wheel many a night in my car's cassette deck! Overall, the show brought back memories of many other nights at Maxwell's with the extended dB's family, including the Golden Palominos, Mojo Nixon, the Mavericks project and the solo shows.

Oh, and I forgot to mention:

Peter, take care of yourself! I guess I'm not alone in saying how much I hope that everything will get better for you and your family.
