    Leslie,

    Ya, I saw the playlist the next day.
    Is that normal to post it after the fact?
    I'm always delightfully surprised at which tracks are chosen.
    Not always what I would expect.
    But that is one of the more aggressive cuts.
    I'll have more time these days to tune in some of these netcasts posted
    here.
    Hope they're not all off on holidays too!
    I saw Captain Beafheart play one time.
    Doesn't he live in a trailer on the desert?

    Thanks,
    Robert
