Hi, Joe and his band will play Sunday in one of the most beautiful pieces for concerts in Switzerland. It's in an old mill, 10 kilometers away from Berne; very...
Well, if it's just the war he's unhappy about, Joe should REALLY perform in my hometown. I see "No War in Iraq" signs all over the place, here. Plus, when I...
Just a little tidbit about my family's soccer night tonight. Both of my boys play soccer on Thursday night. We drove up to the field behind a car with Texas...
Since Joe will be in Switzerland July 15, it makes me wonder if we will see him back in the states, and when. Is there any update on more US dates on this...

I saw that Bill mentioned Randy Newman's song, "Burn On", which is exactly about that particular river being on fire. How does it go? "Now the Lord can make...

Ah, yes, Quadrophenia...an album that became an essential part of my life in my late teens. Felt like I WAS that character, transplanted to my time and place....

Thanks to all the good folks that post on here. I seldom post, and just wanted to thank everyone for making this a wonderful group. [Non-text portions of this...
That's a great question. I think comparing them is like comparing a tart Granny Smith Apple with a Red Delicious...both are apples, but are different...I love...
Hi, additionally to the one in Cologne I was at the concert in Strasbourg yesterday evening. And again Joe said (in french !) that they were glad to be in...
Musicians say the same thing at every show. It becomes rehearsed and routine to make the same comments every night. If Joe didn't like it in the States he'd...

donīt get me wrong: no one in the audience, whether in Cologne nor in France did launch out a hurray ! As I said, I found it rather out of place. ... and ... ...
Howdy, I wonder if this is similar to how, when in New York City, Joe comments on how glad he is to be back from Los Angeles. In retrospect, this does sound...

Interesting. I just think it is part of his on-stage banter. He is a Brit after all and he has certainly criticized the US before, so c'est la vie! I'm sure...

... I guess that New York is like another planet for Joe and he probably moved there partly because he was tired of England. If I remember well, he lived in...
I think it's normal for most people (especially with a strong personality like Joe's) to make comments on things we don't like. I don't care that Joe has a...
... Gosh, thanks! Neil is quite clearly the more commercially-accessible of the two, but Tim is tremendously talented in his own right. I'd say they are equal,...
(from the Pure Music interview) PM: He's so nimble, and when you're not taking a keyboard solo, his bass is more or less the lead instrument in the band. JJ:...

I kind of disagree that JJB is bass-based, but it could be argued that way. In the pop music world bass usually takes a back seat, but I listen to a lot of...
