[kj] They didn't play this in London/ little angry honey bee guitar

[Jiri]

Hey fluwdot, curious what you thought of the sound on the XXV Gathering 
cd/dvd? While conceding that it's a mastered production (and admitting 
my ignorance in the nuances of sound tech), it sounded much better to me 
than anything on the 2003 tour -- that gave me hope. I never thought I'd 
hear "Song & Dance" (one of my favorites) or "Pandys" like that again. 
Too tough to tell from the current Youtubin' what tone is coming to our 
shores, but the anticipation is killing me.

P.S. If you bring the Burman, I volunteer my wife to help you carry it :) 
<zap> Oh, hey what's that honey? Nah, nothin', just emailing and paying 
bills...
