REVIEW BY: Bruce Lachey


Just got back from the show tonight; pretty standard fare; all the
usual suspects + "Bothered" at the end.  I went on my standard trek
to steal the setlist and phat-cat-Mikey told me they aren't using
them this mini-tour since they're all the same.  jeesh.  Anyway, the
point of this is that if Mr. Emery does anything to that list of mine,
I swear... 

The usual din of idiots at Main Event was tolerable for the most 
part, but Brian got up during the start of "Etc. Whatever" and shut
the door leading to the "sporty" section of the club.  (?!)

Karin was in a jovial mood the whole night, introducing "Anyway" as
a song she wrote "when she saw her half-sister at [her] father's
funeral a few years back...  It's real chipper!!" then laughed 
quite a bit and sang away.  A real gross looking shirt; akin to 
a modern day 70s trailer trash shirt.

After seeing it twice live now, I'm really addicted to the beginning
of "I Will Remember".  Pretty groovy, in a "Baby Jane"-esque way.

Talked to Karin and Linford (Linford looked especially haggard and
worn down) about the imminent recording; Linford said that although
they always understand anything committed to tape could be released,
he seemed to hint that this could just be an unheard demo tape to
be shopped around record companies.

When another fan asked about Cornerstone, Karin paused and let slip
that there "may be a conflict" but it will probably be worked out
so they may perform.
