Reviews

It was an excellent show. Afterwards I talked to Robyn and had him sign my Moss Elixir cd book. Tim signed it too. Robyn mentioned the Chicago crowd was a little noisy at time, but also said our crowd was a bit quiet. We had a great table in the first row in front of Tim.

One of my favorite moments was when Robyn and Tim were playing "De Chirico Street" and left out a whole section. They realized it at the end and had to fumble around before
remembering what they'd left out. They finished the song with the forgotten "Fleshhead!" verse. Robyn says something along the lines of how the crowd nearly got cheated out of the part they'd all been waiting for.

Robyn played Shank Hall in Milwaukee last night. Such a small club!!
Maybe 150 people tops at the show. I'll post a set list as soon as I review the tape, but Robyn did perform "Elizabeth Jade". A superb new song.

Tim Keegan opened and was very good. My wife commented it was the best opener she'd ever heard. I'll have to agree with her on that one.
