Chris - Well, I've made it to a couple of Bitter End shows, but the last one I was at was in November (April '03 and July? before that). It's a bit hard to believe that it's been that long - this year has been flying by. It's absolutely possible we've met or at least been crammed in the same small space together.
Wish I could officially meet you in Columbus, but I am in Illinois, and that's about 8 hours away I think, so 'no can do' on a work day.
I'm not sure how they access email while traveling, but I am sure they've got it down to a science with the LR tour going on for so long now.
Again, have fun! Can't wait to hear how it goes.
