Hello Kids

Uncle Tom of Wormwoodian descent here
monday morning, fresh and clean
and yes I lathered and rinsed twice

ain't tryin to be pompous here, so hear me out

you know the routine by now ~

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

~I really want to take my Hats Off To Jeff (Sage) Trisoliere!

~Not only does this guy administer some killer trees, and quite a few at
once 
but the FBO page is a rather neat addition. Can't wait to send my photo of
the worm clan

 No more wondering how to get a hold of somebody, where their
webpage is, or what they look like.  The member directory can sometimes
prove to be a very intimate view of the people whose posts you have come to
read daily!!

Much thanks to Jeff and anyone else involved!

The sole point of the message: looking for sympathy from the list.  I
cannot wait to see how many Moral Majority subscribers now waste
bandwidth posting "leave David alone" to the list.

~ lighten up will you.  Although I don't claim to be moral or of a majority,
I think your comments were aimed at those you don't understand.
Unfortunately, it appears that too many ugly "religious" people and an
unkind media have tainted your heart to real Christians.  Sorry if I
offended you, but don't stereotype something you don't understand

~ As for David P.  THis man lives and breathes Zep and has put a vast amount
of his energy and God given talent into giving us all bootleg reviews that
make you feel as if you were there yourself.  Ever sent him a thank you when
you have been touched by one of his reviews??  I find it tragic that so many
dump on David so quickly and ruthlessly.
I for one can understand why he might have been so pissed at the list. Are
his apologies not enough?  This list has fallen to a level of fodder much
like MTv (empty-v) where flash is more important than substance!  And David
for one is a man that was laying his heart out on his sleeve with few people
letting him know how much they appreciated his work, and plenty of
nameslayers when he misquoted a detail or posted a frustration letter.

~ as that Tupelo hillbilly would say "Walk a mile in his shoes"

~ I've had my share of the boot on this and another former Zep mailing list
and feel that even though David was a committee member, it doesn't hold him
to some unobtainable level of Godliness.  Isn't this after all just a
mailing list?..  Point your arrows and fiery darts at your local congressman
or congresswoman if you must, but leave the man alone.  

~Thanks David for all you do, your torch still burns brightly!

4 string errors and omissions

bob a tee   bop bop

sorry gang it was 2:30 in the morning when I posted this following a little
Dash Rip Rock cd release party in the Quarter so I left out a few 

Roger Waters of Pink Floyd - great frontman, emotive, holds the space rather
well with David G.  Evocative and conceptual right up there with the best e
& c Pete Townsend.
Had less clutter to play through and nicely augumented Wright on keys.

Simeone (sp?) of the Clash - muscular bottom end, somewhat one dimensional
but very driven, fit the band perfectly

The Bassist with Crazy Horse (forgot his name)  great integration with Neil

Schmidt with the Eagles - great harmony singer, I Can't Tell You Why but his
playing was sparse but fit the Eagles sound perfectly

Steely Dan - the sessionmen and Becker both added such a nice touch to Aja,
Goucho and Royal Scam.

errors - The Ent did play a little french horn, forgot this detail as  I
think of the Who as a touring band and less of their early studio, I
overlooked John's other contributions... am I forgiven?

anyway glad you liked it if you did
next up Roberto

anybody still want to send the In The Morning lyrics?  thanks

Toodles for topsoilian terrain
