That's absolutely incredible. Isn't technology wonderful? In the old days you had to travel forever, stand in line forever just in the hope of getting a glimpse, an autograph, and maybe a few words with your favorite performers. Now you can converse until the wee small hours of the morning. INCREDIBLE.

I've never been in a chatroom before -- how does it work, AW?

Well, it's just a little html chat, which is kinda more like this board than a more sophisticated IRC chat (not really suitable for a lot of people), but you're talking as you're going along ,not posting and having people come along and add to it later.So you're talking to people who are actually in the room at that time. Anyway, it was fun, it was just the mostly the regulars and a few newcomer posters- no I didn't know ahead of time.

Well, if Burton is going to drop in for another chat(s) session, it would be prudent for us diehards to submit what each of us think is a reasonable setlist -- reasonable being that they would probably only feel comfortable doing 3 or 4 non-hit songs per show. I am a huge fan, I mean HUGE fan of several non-hit GW material. It would be interesting to see what everyone would come up with for their 3 non-hit cuts that would transcend well to a live setting.

Actually, VFD and I were tossing that idea around as a fun possibility for a poll on the Burton ONELIST poll site. We can put up to 25 possible song choices to vote on, and then see what the results are after a week or two. The poll keeps track of who made the vote, too, so there can't be any "ballot-stuffing", and you can change your vote anytime before the poll closes, if you change your mind. We'll have to decide on the 25 songs to list, first, though. -- Fred
