St Paul, Cedar Rapids, dust.

Great night in St Paul. Tried out the new Bose sound system where you stand in front of this tall thin speaker stack and work without monitors. The sound filled the room and i really enjoyed the feel of playing and listning to the same sound that the audience get. Great crowd of folks too. Played Cedar rapids tonight. Drove four hours to get here across flat terrain of farms and occasional houses. Trucks kicking up big dust stroms as they roll across the terrain. This is a big land. Chris now 49 points down thanks to Lou Reed, Bruce, Paul Simon, Sting and the Rolling Stones. All these guys were around before he was born so he doesnt stand much chance i get. Its when i nick the occasional R&B act from him that he gets nasty!
