I was disappointed there wasn't more of a turnout for the screening of
Do it Again last Friday in Tacoma. Might have been 10 people in the
theater. There's another showing tonight at 8:45 but I won't be able to
go, I'll be working.

Can anyone urge Geoff to have "Do It Again" included in the Atlanta Film

2011.)
The URL for information on it is at:

It's with the Dessoff Chamber Choir. I just bought tickets for the
Wellmont Theatre show in 11/26.
The band is like 4 pcs., plus Ray, plus the choir.

On the David Letterman Show tonight, Paul Shaffer and the band played
"Set Me Free" as Hilary Swank, star of the film "Conviction," walked
onstage. Never heard that one on TV before.

episode (possibly last Friday's "Little Things"), they played "You

Hi all,
I have a question today.
In the song "Sitting In The Midday Sun", a line goes;
>>I haven't got a stereo, radio or video
I am wondering how popular and affordable VCR's were in the West when
the song was written in 1973. I remember the day my dad bought a
National (now known as Panasonic) VHS recorder in 1981, and nobody else
at my school in Japan had one.
