Fanatic! Jet lagging in Berlin. We have a great show for you. As you can see, there are a lot of Berlin references in our first hour. I started working on this show weeks ago, knowing where I was going to be.

Road Manager Ward and I hit the streets yesterday and went to a lot of record stores. I found nothing! It was still great to get outside and walk around. While we were out, we walked by the SO36, where I did a show in 1983. It was the first time I had been seen the venue since I was there. You will notice that we have a live Wire track from there.
There's something great about playing certain records in certain places. In my line of work, I get to a lot of cities. I took advantage of having a night off here to listen to Low by David Bowie and The Idiot by Iggy Pop. They both sounded great, of course.
The next few shows will be location oriented as I will be on the move for weeks to come. No rest until June!
We hope you dig our somewhat Berlin focused show.
Play a record for me and STAY FANATIC!!!
