Think it was around 2000 or slightly earlier, first time, first piece I ever heard Chris Chandler do.  Dazzled then and a big admirer now.

Much amazing stuff, loved all the teams I heard. the gang that year, then Feeney, the piano player, and now Paul Benoit, the latest CD is haunting, funny, sharp, choice.

Chris, I was introduced to you at a club in Cambridge, MA in ~1994 by my friend, Pete Cassani (remember him?). I was floored as you performed this song triumphantly along with "mundane" and the one involving Jack Kerouac and Walt Whitman. I have not heard it in ~17 years, so I'm grateful that you posted it--the visuals complement the story nicely!

Kinda' Markrlo Twainuthrie-ish.

Great n' interesting story with lots of verbally accomplished "high"adrenaline pumps by the reader . inspiring...for me. Yes. Me like it too, for message alone.

Even the smallest of things you do or never get a chance to do can and will affect other's futures. well, that's what I got. Yes-Cool, I like.

Hey, I've been using lots of metaphors lately I'm all out.
