Very good purchase Lars.  I just got back from
the Los Angeles concert, and it was absolutely
fantastic.   You can't go wrong with such a strong
set of studio musicians and great songs.    Although
I think I preferred the 93-94 touring lineup on
guitar/bass/drums, this one was very very good.

I was surprised to see that my wife and I (combined
ages of 58) were easily the youngest concert-goers that
we could see.   Dandom is full of middle aged, over the
hill yuppies trying to be young again groovin to the
classic Becker/Fagan tunes.  The crowd was a bit lukewarm,
but I guess it takes a while for that metamucil and geritol
to kick in.

Lolita and Winston - go fork out the dough and get tickets
for NY while you still can.    It's worth it just to hear 
the superb backing vocals (Lolita - you really must hear the
new version of "Dirty Work" - it may be the trademark number
from this tour.   It has a new twist to it much the same as
the re-worked "Reelin' In the Years" from 93-94).
