I heard from Dawson (Dan's wife) that he decided not to play California out of the blue one day, just a "I'm not going to play California for no reason in particular!" type-thing. There's no cryptic meaning to it; she even went through a list of all the rumors with me (the warrant thing was in the there, Dan's mom had recently passed away/had died in Cali, injuries, fear, dislike of the place, etc.) and she said there wasn't any reason, just another thing to add to their quirkiness. from Charlie Wagner | AOLIM=themadlord np: A Perfect Circle, "Mer De Noms" band = http://theoryband.tripod.com reviews = http://scientificreviews.tripod.com/ "Music should punch through the small of your back, grab your spine, and shake hello." - Pitchforkmedia.com ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
