while neither david gilmour nor roger waters has any business performing songs from _the wall_ live, i find david gilmour's performances more tolerable, because 1) he can sing and 2) he can play the guitar.

vaguely related note: are there actually no politically active rock bands anymore? you couldn't throw a rock without hitting five of them in the sixties and seventies, and even in the eighties you had U2 (and a couple others, I think... there's always David Gilmour's song "Cruise" about the Reagan deployment of cruise missiles in England)... is that it? is the singing activist a dying breed? this ain't necessarily a bad thing, just an odd one.

massage class last night... quite good. it's weird being the youngest and most conservative person in a room, but hey. (it's also weird having the second-longest hair in a room, but i'm used to that, after work.)

my father called about an hour ago. he'd managed to get out of DC and was at home.
so that's good at least.

why yes, it *is* overly selfish of me to be relieved that my father's safe. deal.
