[Powderworks] Letterman/Paul Shaffer

Since the brief discussion about Letterman, I discovered that Paul Shaffer
covered Beds Are Burning on his 1993 album ("The World's Most Dangerous
Party").  It's not something that I would particularly want to hear, but I
found it interesting and thought it might be worth sharing.

BTW, I was at both the Birch Hill and the Philly shows.  They were my first
MO shows and I was completely blown away!  I brought my girlfriend to the
Philly show and even though she only knows Bed Are Burning, she was very
impressed.  I brought a friend to the Birch Hill show, and he was similarly
impressed.  I also met a few Powderworkers (Nina, Chris Nelson, and Dave
Sanchez) at the Birch Hill show.  Since I am pretty much just a lurker (on
the list, that is!), I didn't really expect to meet anybody... but Nina
approached us and asked if we were Powderworkers...  so thanks Nina!
