All tours have low points and i am very much hoping 3 hours in cars in LA with a 6. am start the next morning marks the spot. i seem to remember a Jackson Brown lyric that fits here. “the only time that seems too short is the time that we get to play” by which, of course,  he meant music, and I would mean talking history, women, religion, art – all the stuff that makes life interesting, And yes, music though in this case polyphony and Palestrina.

thank you to all who have come to listen and join in the conversation.  When you come to read the book do let me know what you thought. I would love to hear it.  now I have an evening off in SF.  life is not all bad!
