Hello all. It's been a while since I have posted. To be exact, I went to the B&S show on September 9th ,(two days before the world changed), at The Warfield in San Francisco. My review the following week was somber at best. I recently read a review in Rolling Stone on the September 11th B&S show here in the states, great review and picture! I am so proud that B&S went on with the show and continued to inspire and uplift. I remember visiting New York years ago and hearing "California Dreaming" by the Mama's and the Papa's, and every time I hear the song now I'm always reminded of both places. Been listening to a soundtrack from a movie called "Beautiful Thing", cute movie awesome soundtrack! The first handful of songs is by Mama Cass then the remaining songs by the Mama's and the Papa's. I have been listening to the "Jonathan David" single constantly. It was a great traveling c.d. while driving up to Lake Tahoe in northern California a few weeks back. Along with Rufus Wainright-"Poses", the new "Best of Morrisey" and of course The Strokes. Any word on Storytelling release in the U.S.? Any picnic's in the bay area? I have a debate with some friends of mine on what I call California Speak or Slang. Ours may not be as evident as a New Yorker's. I think it's apparent when we say things like "hella", or "like" about 50 times. Anyone else agree? O.k. I'm rambling at work in my cubicle in silly-con valley!
