Hi,

It's a shame that the world in the West Coast in America will never get to see a PH or VdGG ... ever again. And I'm not sure that they can garner enough fans to have a decent show in this side of the country and be appreciated, instead of 74 fans showing up at a bar in Portland, and PH have to spend the night in someone's couch, because a hotel, or whoever is driving, is tired and needs a rest!

Gawdddd, sounds like a PH song already! But yeah, I'm resigned to never see one of my favorite musicians and poets in my life. The one that "mattered" to me. And I will shed my tears when the time comes, and post a poem or two ... as the only thing I can do. Shed another tear ... ohhh, I forgot ... tears in the rain ... gone forever in the ocean of life!
Not even Los Angeles? For shame, and depressing to say the least.

I feel fortunate enough(especially as a US citizen)to have seen VDGG twice and PH once. I even talked to PH briefly and he seemed like a very down to earth kind of guy. Not the typical rock star ego at all but then again I only talked to him for about two minutes.

I had a long walk and talk with Peter Hammill once (about 3 hours). That was before I met Jean and still had my hair (I lost it after a traumatic experience).

I've had many traumatic experiences. Maybe that explains why I'm bald too. Actually, I have heard that stress can induce baldness so that makes sense in my case since I started to lose my hair in my early 20's during very stressful times. I was very depressed at one point and had a nervous breakdown. Not fun but I survived. I think that's one reasoan why VDGG/PH sometimes resonates with me especially a song like "place to survive" or "pilgrims."
