Yeah - I went on to Empathy at the Blue Mountain (6am finish) - but went 
home 
early as was broken (see prev comment re Wojtek).

<<'25 kinds of love' it is.  It's too many;  it's not enough.>>

Yeah - remember that - nice lyric - & Gerard L credited Gerard S with 
so-writing the song.

Yeah - saw Angelo on the tele last night (old Rockers joke).

The thing about the mixing is that Angelo is one of the best guitarists I 
know (along with Adrian Utley) for holding back and letting the others do 
their 
thing in the midfield, and then chiming in with the perfect riff when the 
gap 
opens - I bet his fader on the mixing desk hardly needed touching all 
night, 
from the (?improvised) two note psych solo of "25 kinds of love" to the 
full-on 
Clapton / Gikmour stuff - Indeed on tracks like "Weightless"; "...and 
stones" 
and "Ups" (sadly not played tonight) he really has made that intricate 
soaring 
style with heavy delay his own - I can't think of another guitarist that 
could even play "...and stones" let alone write it. A new album with new 
material  
 co-written by Angelo would be the best thing a member of this list could 
hope for for 2008!

Did anyone record it???

Hopefully an extra day of new music!
