"...and the leather shoes that some insist on wearing, sigh." >Incredible. You have a problem with people who "insist on wearing >leather shoes." That's such a California notion!
Well it's tough being a lute player in California. I trust that for David's gig they at least stayed on the feet- live performances and restless shoe leather are suddenly becoming a real phenomenon, ripe vegetables no longer in vogue apparently. I once had an event with velcro sandal fasteners mid performance- one of my devoted auditors pulled one off his foot; sounded exactly like the program being ripped angrily in half. When it happened again from the other foot I really had to wonder what was going on. Then a heavy glass mounted picture crashed to the floor in the second half of the concert. Life is still a bit wild out here in the West. DW -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
