Good afternoon all dear connected Souls I see here
I dont know how to start this thred ! ( another thred !) maybe I've found the way though
Anyway ! I was just thinking ! ( well actually ,I haven't stopped since the Birmingham Symphony Hall plans flooded my mind ) I'm so excited.

" Think I'd give all my hope's to be free! " sit in a million trials to be free ! "

Random ! ( Yes I know )

It's just running around in my head at the moment ! That B side, I know its Make me smiles B side, but none the less , its one of them songs that always fed a hunger in me whilst waiting for another release from The Man with a plan.

Big Big Deal was another, although thease tracks came after the first 2 Albums ( so are not really relavent to this thought )

The concept of the First 2 Albams being performed in this way is Magical , Such a dream ! ( now there's a thought ! )

There's another one of them B sides ,I'd always put on after the Albums where finnished playing out ! ( both sides ) bit like afters! after the feast .

Rock and Roll Parade ,The B to sabastian, Spaced out the B Side to Judy Teen, ( loved tht one ) all where delightfull surprises, one off's.

Spaced Out has a line in it Quoting

" Oh I never wanna go back to where I've been , Theres a whole new world that I'm with in ! VIOLIN

I just Loved that intro for Crocker to step forward and take lead you astray , then PIANO! enter Ream-James

But when I come down ! Spaced out !

I do understand , that, that was then ,and now is now .
Just my imaginations running away with me

But I can Hear Barry and James in as much of the same light. maybe not in that Symphony Hall, but on some stage ,in some town , in some future plan . I can hear them.

Anyway !and the Thred is ? B sides after dark , after eights !

OH and I hope to God that the 24th November Is Fully Recorded On DVD and on salefor all, if not for christmas 2013 , ( dont want much do we ) or summer 2014 ! winter 2014 ? 2000 years from now . what will the History tell.

show me all your colours how could I forget! Throw your soul down here .

Your postings are always a great read, and this one doesn't disappoint. The lyric quotes are very stirring.

See you at Birmingham, God willing.

If there's no room for laughter there's no room for me

Try looking at you, rather than me

No truth is in here, it's all fantasy

Since the last time we met I've been through

About seven hundred changes and that's just a few

And the changes all tend to be something to do

But you've got to believe that they're all done for you......
