Midnight Oil

[Powderworks] business cards-song request

The box with all the cards was brought back to the green room after the
show. Some of the crew and I think Peter Garrett briefly looked at the cards
to see what songs were requested. Later, others used the cards as scrap
paper to write their phone #, email, etc.. on to give to the band. I think
the box of cards was left behind when everyone left for Boulder, Colorado at
3am. For the record, I requested "Stand in Line".

"Basement Flat" wasn't picked out of the box- a fan up front yelled for it,
and Peter made a comment about it, just before "No Time for Games" was
picked. Can't wait for the July shows! Jon.
