I think what Bill was going for with James was "howling" considering the previous set:

9:08 pm - Grateful Dead - Dire Wolf
9:04 pm - Los Lobos - Will the Wolf Survive
9:01 pm - Warren Zevon - Werewolves Of London

How about an owl set Bill?

Sympathy for the Devil - Rolling Stones
Who - The Who
Bad - U2
Black Horse and a Cherry Tree - KT Tunstall

Listen and you will hear...

i always thought the criticism of a song as being pretentious was itself pretentious, coming from an audio radience member after all... until i heard this! or is there a joke i have missed, hopefully?

I was reading through the comments before that bit started and couldn't imagine what the h3ll everyone was going on about.

Sounds like the result of a transmogrifier accident involving U2 and Ricky Ricardo.



And yet ... I sorta like it.

Yes, they lost me with the babalou stuff. Then, the mixture of noises got on my nerves.
