Sinister: *yawn* *wink*

[caleb ben moore]

hey sinisters
    caleb ben here.  last night i went and saw
lambchop at the 400 bar here in minneapolis. 
what a heck of a show!
   and i even got to meet kurt wagner, the main
man leading the 'chop.  nice guy.  we sat
together at the bar before the show and had our
beers.  he's a quiet man and i was nervous, but i
finally introduced myself with a "hi would you be
so kind as to sign this for me?"  as i held out
the tour cd i had just purchased.  he smiled.  i
didnt really know what else to say so i just said
"your music is very very special. thanks so much"
 he thanked me for coming and for the compliment.
the show was fantastic!  soft, understated. 
exactly as i thought it would be. i made a bit of
a blunder though, accidentally.  i stood right in
front of the stage, like literally 2 feet from
kurt and from tony crow, the piano player.  when
they started to play "new cobweb summer" i took
out my cell phone and called my girl ulla to
share this beautiful song with her.  she was
asleep in her bed in estonia at the time.  well,
anyway.....she answers and i say "hey baby,
here's lambchop for you"  and then it occurs that
everyone in the front (including the band) were
kinda glaring at me. lambchop is a very quiet
band.  someone sort of pushed me in the back, and
the piano player was shaking his head at me and
mumbling something. i remained staunch though,
holding it up for ulla to hear the whole song. 
it was worth it.  i wanted to share that
beautiful music, that incredible intimacy with
the girl i love.  all of you in europe MUST go
see them if you can.  they will be there soon! 
if you havent already listened to lambchop you
must!  "is a woman" is their latest and it's so
so so crushingly gorgeous.

obligatory b&s content: who all is going to the
chicago show?, as i would love to meet up a bit
beforehand and say hi to you all.  

take care......caleb ben  aka  raw
