I remember Hurricane Agnes pretty well – I shun houses with basements. I’ve never seen or heard you cover a Warren Zevon song, but figure you’re cut from the same bolt of jute. I’d like to hear that sometime, and especially Carmelita.

Hey Howe!

Great gig at the Ritz in Manchester UK the other month.

You were a suprize, a dusty, wood-biting suprize. Mechanical yet organic, i liked it!

So well done for doing good in Manchester!

You forgot to mention working for Shel Vale in your history of Howe Gelb. Wasn’t that a seminal period for you? How’s Rick?

You rule, Mr. Gelb. I love proVISIONS and the supplement, too. Not to mention OP8. And Blacky Ranchette. Did I mention OP8? And the stuff under your own name is really fucking cool. And so on.

I mean, shit, here I am writing a mash note–what’s up with that? I wrote one once to Charles Schultz when Linus lost his blanket–I was outraged and most concerned–and one to Neil Young around the time of Ragged Glory. Schultz wrote back; Neil did not.

I’m lucky to write 3 or 4 songs a year, so it blows me away to see all you do, seemingly all at the same time. My game plan is to make my next CD as much like proVISIONS as possible. I would be honored to be sued by you, though I am entertain no illusions that A) my next CD will sound anything like proVISIONS; B) I will find the time or money to actually make a next CD; C) you would ever hear said next CD if I were to find the time or money to make it; or D) you would in the least feel threatened, or flattered, or anything other than, you know, bored, if you were in fact to hear said next CD, which I’ll probably never find the time or money to make, but would want to sound like proVISIONS if I did.

I bid you fondue.

Howdy Howe, shame your Dublin slot had to be cancelled – our fault or otherwise. Best of luck on your onward trail, hope to see you back here soon – on the seventh wave.
