Fanatic! In a not all that warm backstage area in Richmond, VA. It’s cold outside. 25F. Made the walk to the gym earlier memorable. I’ve got the music for tonight’s show playing and it’s sounding good. All is well out here, besides two shows lost to weather. Besides that, the shows are good and the audiences have been great. Tour life in this weather is pretty confined. It looks like we’ve got intense weather for all the North American shows. I got some letters about last week’s David Bowie dive. Glad you dug it. I thought it was an interesting way to go about such a unique opportunity to assess the man’s work. I hope you dig the show and maybe I’ll be seeing you out on the road.
