Sounds good.  Except that I quite like synth noodles.  Im a big fan of
noodling synths.  Adds to the psychdelic atmospheric quality of the vibe of
the show which also adds to the impact of the guitar "blanga" (still haven't
got used to that term yet) tunes when they kick off.
mmmm whats for dinner.......

That is something I dont like to hear.  I am hoping nothing serious.

Thanks for the review.
btw?  Did you get my email recently regarding me sending a cd?  I never got
