Hi all --
I'm a one-time powderworker back after a long spell. Preaching to choir 
here, but I just have to chime in on how generous and genuine the band is. 
I met Rob briefly Tuesday afternoon and he invited me to sit in on sound 
check at the Warfield and got the rest of the boys to sign a photo I took 
of them at the Exxon Valdez protest gig in midtown Manhattan many years 
ago. He also offered to put me on the guest list (as if I didn't have tix 
already??).

As for the show, I found it sub par in comparison with other Oils shows 
I've seen. Not worth cluttering the list with too much about that! Just a 
personal opinion and those who liked it reminded me how lucky I've been to 
witness some real incendiary nights.

cheers,
Tim
