        As long as TBS [a better acronym than just BS! ;)] keep playing
"Time Is Gonna Take Care Of You" (or whatever the real title is).  That's
rapidly becoming my favorite tune of theirs.  I know it's from the first
album, it's the second album that's in vogue now ;) but it just rocks so
incredibly live--the little tempo shift, the massively heavy guitars, and
of course Deb screech the title in the chorus.
        I have to work out the chords and licks for some TBS material so I
can jam on it with people and (if I still make it to England) if I get a
new band we can cover them :)  (I also dream of covering "Warriors of
Gengis Khan" by Bad News of course .... :)


        I'd comment on TBS show in Burlington extensively as well, except
it's already been mentioned a while ago ('fraid I've been on jury duty this
week and have barely had so much time as to merely skim through my mail).
        I'll add that it was great, and as good as the studio material is
the live band is even better.  I liked the material I'd only heard on
album, but it really caught on fire live.  Plus, I'd like to thank TBS for
guest listing us in to the show and for putting up with our well meaning
attempts to help lug their gear around.  And I'd like to thank Chip for
hammering this show into place :) and for that tasty beer (#9 from Magic
Hat).
        Alas! I didn't get a chance to introduce my sister to the band, but
she was pretty impressed with TBS, never having heard them before (she was
the red-head standing by myself and Tania).
        Too bad as usual that there wasn't even more Brain Surgeons--I'd
love to come down to the CBGB's show, but that's doubtful :(  still after
three shows I've seen about 2 hours of Brain Surgery and that's no bad
thing at alll, at all :)

        It quite relieves the pressure ...

Cheers,
Carl
