Who intends listening tonight? Who still has problems with linking with the webcast - we are endeavouring to sort things our end, if possible?

I'm sorry to say but I completely lost the connection around 9:30 and never got it back.  I kept refreshing and it tried to buffer but nothing happened.

That means I missed a vast chunk of the show. Cry

I got myself a white label copy of the album and a promotional DVD of the band playing snippets of tunes. Oddly the promotion was out of Guildford - what 5000 miles from California

That PiL track was good.

As a Chicago fan of old I've borrowed/seen a couple of DVDs of the modern line-up. They trotted out the old pre Shag 6 material, and have all the look boredom in their faces, doing it in their sleep. Trouble is the American fan base seems to lap it all up instead demanding some attention. The Chicago By Request DVD is abysmal - Robert lamb's first vocal note on that is flat too. I admit the Earth Fire Wind with Chicago at Greek theatre is fun, especially when both bands play together 25 or 6 to 4 - but there Chicao have a challenge to stay awake.


Perhaps that's why California Transit Authority take on the early Chicago sounded fresh - btw did that album ever get a legit release?

Blimey, Earth Wind and Fire are still going? I quite like some of their old hits. Chicago I don't like much after the first few albums.

Yes this was my request, Thanks Dick.

Did you see John Lydon's recent advertisement for butter? That was really cringeworthy.


The DT also has a crap green pundit advising how to save the planet . Insensed me enough to have my students check her facts

I think Tony Mc has simply got pissed off playing the old Groundhog favourites - he even entitled an album in the 90's something like:  Who Requested Cherry Red? I  saw him at Leicester DeMontford 3 summers ago and disappointed how short his set was on acoustic.

not their best album, but certainly a return to decent music (not sure about lyrics...)


I must admit hardly knowing the band's music (perhaps only through the new one) I have no idea what "form" is in the context. I know having borrowed I not Likely to go buying
