Would ANYONE in the audience have rather had their money back than to have heard the songs without cello & Is's backup singing? But I guess it's not up to us to decide. But I think everyone would've preferred anything to nothing. I would rather hear four songs with David & an acoustic guitar than have my $12.50 back. Now I'm sure there will never be a California show, since that was dependent upon how well things went in the east. Well I've still got the CDs. Get well Isobel. >> i wasn't at the show, but if i was, i wouldn't have wanted them to play under the circumstances. i think they did the right thing. taking care of their friend and bandmate seems far more important to me than playing a half-assed show when their minds would've been elsewhere. you've got to have your priorities. *alyssa marie* +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
