Thanks, Reg, for those thoughtfully made selections. They all had elements of the sounds that I've been in need of! So many songs that I had never come across, and the inclusion of Hush was inspired. I'll play it today! 

As for Bruce in Boston, well, my daughter and son-in-law have tickets, really good seats, and they are expected to fly home from Thailand the day before the show. But, if they are delayed, and Bruce and company are in good health, I'll be there. I do wonder if Bruce is up to the rigors of another long tour. 

And I hear you, EEE, regarding your musical memories of the past. There are still new gems to hear and memories to make. For me, reading and podcasts have eaten into my search for new music. Funny, last week in the local mall, I heard Make Me Smile by Chicago. And I pretty much detest Chicago, but damn, it sounded so fresh and alive, and Terry Kath's exquisite guitar, well, I was won over, at least for that song!

In May, within the span of a week, I have shows by Frank Turner and The Hold Steady. If you haven't seen either band, Eric, you really should. So powerful, and I'll point you to the songs that you just have to know.

No school here in New Hampshire, as we might have a foot or so of really heavy snow. When it comes to snow days, I revert to my ten year old self! But I'll pay the price come June when we make this up!
